In the by-election, we served notice to Ken Sim and ABC. In 2026, we finish the job. Fighting for housing, public services, climate action, and integrity at City Hall. Honour MST 進步選民聯盟 https://www.votecope.ca/

The ABC Councillor who previously apologized for his own role in spreading defamatory disinformation now implies nobody cares about the issue.
An insult to voters, and to our city.
We're going to evict them all in October.

"People don’t want to see this hyperpartisan atmosphere where we’re just lying about each other, and that’s what we’re seeing in the US: character assassination & misinformation peddled by far-right groups.” - Cllr @seanorr.bsky.social

Politicians like Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim and Coun. Lenny Zhou who spread lies about a colleague for political gain undermine trust in our political system. They don't deserve our respect or votes, @adriennetanner.bsky.social writes.
“'Fairchild TV News has not received any statement in Cantonese and/or Mandarin from Mayor Ken Sim, despite Sim stating he would do so yesterday,' said Albert Tsui, with Fairchild TV News."
From @isabellazavarise.bsky.social:

“I think that opportunity is largely past, for him to actually come and proactively, rebuild that trust" - Solomon Yi-Kieran.
Oh well in that case.
"The news conference began at 2 p.m., and by 2:05 p.m., the mayor had disappeared. Journalists and other observers present were baffled."

“COPE warned that Ken Sim’s jacked-up permit fees are going to make community events more expensive - or stop them from happening at all. This is the impact of austerity."

"Increasingly, the landscape for large-scale events, particularly community events, has been changing."
Ken Sim and ABC found $1 million for a sign and $2 million for fireworks after pushing through a brutal austerity Budget.
Surely we can save Car Free Days!

"Neither Sim nor Zhou were available for comment on Monday."

NOW: Councillor @seanorr.bsky.social is on CKNW discussion Ken Sim's lies.

"Sim’s apology seems like he is sorry he got caught, not that he is actually sorry about what happened."

This isn't the first time that Ken Sim has been involved in a smear campaign against @seanorr.bsky.social. Sean's interview is worth a listen - for its honesty, grace, and concern for the public who are harmed by Sim's dirty tricks
IMO we need more humanity like Sean's in politics. Solidarity.
Trump’s attack on Iran violates UN rules Canada has agreed to uphold. It contradicts numerous values PM Carney claimed he supported in Davos. Endorsing illegality, violence, & destruction over dialogue and peaceful resolution is not what Canadians were promised, or support.
Caught making a 'set of lies,' Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim offers no answers vancouversun.com/opinion/colu...

NEW: Ken Sim avoided reporters yesterday at City Hall rather than address his outrageous lies.
Councillor @seanorr.bsky.social went on CBC this morning to directly address the issue.

Olympic Village is finally getting its school.
It should not take decades to break ground on any promised amenities let alone a neighbourhood school.
No more delays. We need massive reinvestments in social infrastructure in neighbourhoods across Vancouver.

Lenny Zhou, on twitter in February of 2024, wrote: “It's disheartening to see some elected officials & community leaders denying harm reduction for their political gains.”
ABC ran on supporting safe supply and harm reduction policies that save lives when they were elected in 2022 - now they’re trying to scapegoat harm reduction policies to win points with their far-right base.
Ken Sim's lies are Trumpian.
Disinformation is a strategy that far-right parties are using around the world to divide people, spread disinformation about their opponents, and pass the agendas of the super-rich.
