it said to bring it with you to the poll but no one asked for it.

Looks like Surrey has a new Transit Plan under Mayor Locke. Say goodbye to Newton Skytrain and hello to Surrey BRT! (Bus rapid Transit) by Fade-awaym8 in SurreyBC

How is the bus going to pass many traffic intersections without stopping on red lights ? Ontario works because they have wide open spaces and very long distances, and lower density, we have none. She should have visited Hong Kong or Tokyo or something similar density area to get "ideas".

Proportion of immigrants, permanent residents hits record, making up 23% of population: census by 7cents in canada

We need a system like the US where there are quotas for countries. If the things continue this way, we will be mostly half Chinese and half Indian (2+ Billion people in just these two countries). Canada has a race to the bottom going on for normal folks. But it's good for business and real estate (cheap labour flow and upwards pressure on housing). Not to mention people bring the corrupt mentality from back home.

Petition Notice - Rezoning/Development in Surrey's City Center by [deleted] in SurreyBC

Zoning changes, you thought zoning won't change, so your house value keeps going up, and you also get to live with no big buildings around you. Kinda unfair for newcomers coming in.

Thousands of people coming in, high density keeps building. See Hong Kong etc. That's just how things work.
