UNDER MY PUBLISHER WORDPRESS. website .and this is a direct connection to my abusers in 844 johnson street where i live after advocating for super intent city and appointed to the society in a legl position of information officer and legal liasion ;still holding and active daily of that appointment to me  by MR. Doug Swait since 2017. Via Flickr: Vancouver DTES The streets provide the merchants (boosters & dealers) a platform to market their goods, a place to sleep & rest, as well as a social venue. It's both a dangerous place and a safe place where they look out after each other and steal from each other. The Downtown Eastside (DTES) is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The area is noted for a high incidence of poverty, drug use, sex trade, crime, violence, as well as a history of community activism. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downtown_Eastside “The hardcore drug addicts that I treat, are, without exception, people who have had extraordinarily difficult lives. The commonality is childhood abuse. These people all enter life under extremely adverse circumstances. Not only did they not get what they need for healthy development; they actually got negative circumstances of neglect. I don’t have a single female patient in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver who wasn’t sexually abused, for example, as were many of the men, or abused, neglected and abandoned serially, over and over again. That’s what sets up the brain biology of addiction. In other words, the addiction is related both psychologically, in terms of emotional pain relief, and neurobiological development to early adversity.” (Gabor Maté)

Super InTent City: the Penthouse (1) by Bruce Dean Via Flickr: Super InTent City: those left behind ...but what's next? What about the rest of the homeless? Nobody today had answers. ...and after 40 of these homeless are housed in the new "My Place" shelter, what about the people displaced or left longer on wait lists because these 40 take up the last of the insufficient affordable housing in Victoria ...and what happens after these 4 months ...and what about the housed poor barely hanging on - are more shelters coming elsewhere - more housing? Liveable wages/benefits/pensions? _____________________ Temporary homeless shelter on Yates Street to open next week "The shelter at 1240 Yates Street is intended to provide shelter for 40 people living in the homeless encampment set up on the lawn of the Victoria Courthouse." "It will remain open for four months, after which point it is hoped residents will be transitioned to permanent housing." vancouverisland.ctvnews.ca/temporary-homeless-shelter-on-... This is Super InTent City Victoria "This is where the community can come to find out what is happening, the needs of & the concerns of the inhabitants of the Super InTent City" www.facebook.com/superintentcityvictoria/timeline “Through selfishness, greed, indifference, and cruelty, we have forced millions of men, women, and children to struggle through lives of misery, despair, and suffering.” “There is no excuse for the high levels of poverty in Canada. None. None whatsoever.” (Mel Hurtig - Pay the Rent or Feed the Kids) "International human rights law is clear that the criminalization, stigmatization and discrimination against people who are homeless is a violation and requires immediate action on the part of governments to refrain from engaging in such activities and to take immediate steps to address it....So often the right to housing gets lost or is invisible, especially in light of market-driven interests in housing and property. We have to push back on that. Housing is a right not a commodity. And it’s governments at all levels who are responsible for ensuring that." vanwinkles.com/according-to-the-united-nations-housing-an...
