This past weekend, [hundreds rallied against the Broadway Plan](https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/rally-against-broadway-plan) that has far-reaching impacts on communities across the city on [affordability, capacity and trust](https://cityhallwatch.wordpress.com/2022/05/07/palmquist50_affordability-capacity-trust/), as described by Brian Palmquist.

This [scale of development is not justified](https://omny.fm/shows/the-jill-bennett-show/rally-planned-to-protest-broadway-vancouver-plan) as discussed in the full interview with Elizabeth Murphy on the CKNW Jill Bennett Show. 

**But more to the point, it's also clear that the City is seeing the supportive housing development as a way to push density into the Kitsilano while neglecting the needs of the people they are trying to house.**

**We would encourage everyone to get involved in understanding and responding to the Broadway Plan.**
