City Councillor Blocked from Women's Centre

January 24, 2008 - 11:16am

During the Governor General's tour of Vancouver's Downtown Eastside yesterday, women and residents blocked a local city councillor, Elizabeth Ball from entering the Downtown Eastside Women's Centre, a community centre and shelter for women, because of her party's inaction on affordable housing and policies on homelessness, poverty, and the Downtown Eastside. Read more on David Eby's blog, and in a CBC article, "Governor General, councillor heckled in Downtown Eastside".
