East Hastings, again...





Today, there was a protest in East Hastings, by the people who use (and canvas for) affordable housing, mostly protesting a new housing development my a luxury condo maker. East Hastings, as I also wrote about in an earlier post, is the most interesting hood in Vancouver, the hood in which most Vancouver novels are set.

I also loved the nice Londoner who described the whole protest to me and actually didn't mind taking the time to do so. He had a central library employee card and fingers cracked from cold and excessive washing - the feature in all of him, that I noticed most... I wish I could find the time to do more things like what he does...
