We stand for housing every Saturday

Will you Stand with us ?
   Concern about affordable housing and homelessness is strong and widespread. From Burns Lake to Princeton, from Revelstoke to Vancouver, we are a broad spectrum of religious groups, concerned citizens, advocacy groups and labour unions.

   At Main & 33rd in Vancouver, we stand from 1:00 to 2:00 pm on Saturdays.
Let's send a message to all levels of government: "We aren’t going away. We will stand until there is a comprehensive affordable housing program."

   This is going to be a long campaign but we are up to it! Governments will respond when enough people force them to discover that the sale of public land and an uncontrolled housing market are not acceptable. Let’s continue to speak for:

  1. a permanent, national social housing program
  2. a comprehensive provincial housing program that works with municipalities and communities to build affordable housing for people at all income levels
  3. public land for non-market housing – no sale of public land to private interests
  4. improved access to social assistance, increased welfare rates and a higher minimum wage
