Description
Four years ago, he helped put Ken Sim in the mayor's chair. Now he wants him out of it. Vancouver Liberals mayoral candidate Kareem Allam sits down with Adam & Matt to explain why he walked away from ABC and why he's staking his entire campaign on one goal: bringing back the young people fleeing Vancouver. He pulls no punches on a building code he calls a barrier to new housing, density that has outrun the parks & pools neighbourhoods were promised, and a plebiscite question he says amounts to building a prison downtown. Is the property tax freeze really a fee hike in disguise? Who does Kareem say is actually running the drug trade on our streets? And should UBC be folded into the municipality? Don't miss this before you head to the polls.
