THE DTES POVERTARIANS

Wish the DTES Povertarians would stop telling vulnerable, lower income residents that condo owners in the Downtown Eastside are rich people out to get rid of them from their neighborhood. This is simply a disgusting tactic promoted by people from the Anti Poverty Committee, Harsha Walia a Povertarian at the DTES Women's Centre, Am Johal who works for MLA Jenny Kwan and David Eby of BC Civil Liberties who it appears distorted facts over the violent protests by the Black Hooders and which media exposed. Now it appears that the credibility of Mr Eby is tarnished.
