And Then I’ll Bring World Peace.
Vancouver’s new Mayor Gregor Robertson will not only head our city for the 2010 Winter Olympics, but he also promises to solve an issue that has no one has been able to fix.
“Job No. 1 is calling together an emergency task force on homelessness and working on solutions to getting people off the street into a safe place to live as quickly as possible,” said Robertson, a 44-year-old businessman and former MLA, who won the Mayor contest in a landslide.
“We will bring out brightest minds together and end homelessness in Vancouver,” said Robertson.
You’d think that with an average expenditure if $44K per homeless person, they’d manage to at least get them a room.
The East Hastings area is the fastest growing area of Vancouver… it attracts the homeless from across Canada due to the the quality of drugs and services down there.
Good Luck Greg, you’ll need it.
