70% Informative
Housing Minister Ravi Kahlon supports Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim's goal of relocating nearly 300 social housing tenants off the Granville entertainment strip.
Sim revealed Thursday that three old hotels on Granville will no longer be used for social housing.
He promised new social housing would be constructed on city land.
Kahlon said the timing of when the residents will be moved will depend on how quickly the city can act.
Vancouver requested to move social housing off Granville as part of its plan to revitalize the entertainment strip.
Other cities, such as Kelowna , Campbell River and Duncan , have new purpose-built social housing with the types of services Sim has promised will be in Vancouver ’s new buildings.
