- How do you explain Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside to tourists? It’s complicated…
Vancouver's DTES became a poor neighbourhood although relatively stable. The area rapidly decline due to several factors, including an influx of hard drugs, policies that pushed sex work and drug-related activity out of nearby areas, and the cessation of federal funding for social housing. The drug overdoses in the DTES led to the declaration of a public health emergency and critical issues include opioid overdoses, especially those involving the drug fentanyl; decrepit and squalid housing; a shortage of low-cost rental housing; and mental illness, which often co-occurs with addiction.
What happened to Vancouver? This is an eyesore to the world. Who would have thought that a first-world country would face such rampant addiction and homelessness? It's shocking to see!
Hahaha! First world?
The army can not clear ??
первый мир
второй мир..
Господи, сами разделили мир на раз два три...
👎👎👎
I don't think this as true as it seems to be created.
First world?! Is Skid Row in Downtown Los Angeles is a 10yh world? 😅😂
Oh !! Can't believe it's happened in Canada. I was in Vancouver 20 years ago. It's a nice & safe city. 😢
I left BC 2009
What happened to BC now!😭

Although Africa is poor but u wont see people sleeping and living on the streets unless the person is mad . Even the poorest man will get a place to put his head during the night
Things needs to be changed ! If you lose your job, you have lose your home, car and so on
Where in Africa
@@eugenejustin8487in all 54 African countries
@@eugenejustin8487 Every part of Africa
Africans has a beautiful long family system . Even if you are thrown out from your home , even friend can accommodate you until you find a place to put your head !
Thts a lie,have you ever been to Africa, Africa is worse than this ,this nothing bro compared to what you will see in Africa
Africa is not poor, Africa is poor is mindset western world is preached. in reality, Africa is not poor. Africa is run poorly. When you go to African Road, every car you see is paid of cash, not through credit. Every car you see on the western road is financed by the bank, including houses. You actually own nothing in the west. That is why it's easy to lose your house. If you can afford to pay the monthly mortgage.
Just because a state is rich does not mean that everyone there will live a good life.
Canada is not a rich country
Where do these people go to the toilet, where do they wash, where do they cook, what do they eat?
On the street,in gas stations and dumpsters
Wow@@pattyrobinson1458
Every thing is changed in Canada because of this ind and Punjabis 🤬
Thanks, that you makes me know the crisis of economic and social crisis throughout the world.
I used to own a business near this area. It was a nightmare. It’s gotten 10 times worse in the last 5 years.
Trudeau c'est une honte 😮 tu ferais bien de balayer devant ta porte avant d' aider les autres pays. Priorité à ton peuple. Tu peux comprendre ça ou c est trop compliqué pour ton petit cerveau 🤮😤😠😡
Worse than what I would imagine because I used to always hear how clean Canada is.

That’s actually remarkably safe. Here in Ottawa if you walk down the streets in the suburbs and record people you will get attacked and accosted. People have gone mental in the last few years.
It’s not at eye level, so I’m guessing he/they are being discreet about the recording. People recording start fights all the time here too!
@@fredpennerfringe it’s a strange new mental illness. I grew up in the time where if someone pulled out a camera in public people would smile and wave or act normally. The other day I was out recording and three different people lost their absolute minds on me. What happened to the minds of the people in this country?
@@fredpennerfringe and I think you mean… “mental people start fights with people recording.” Not the other way around.
@@miked.7245 it’s not a zoo ….
Heard suburban areas of Barry also turning into that.
Sad reality of old age poverty..All I can see is the seniors trying to make a living by hawking their wares in the streets whereas they should be at home being taken care of by their children and grandchildren like we do it in Africa. In Africa yes we are poor but we do take care of our elderly parents despite the limited resources. We keep them in warm dwellings whether huts or otherwise and provide them with food.
I haven’t been to Vancouver for decades. What I have been missing. Thanks for the video.
Bet you regret moving away. I bet you jealous of the life you missed and wanna buy you a fancy house and then a nice store on hastings to sell locally sourced expensive wine. Dont worry the rich will come to your specialty wine store and theft will be near 0. If i was somebody else and had more money without kids and dogs i would probably move there. Likely even let a illigal immigrant live with me rent free. But im me and im broke with kids and dogs so sadly i cant but i will demand someone else does just sadly cant be me. Im crying im so sad that i cant live by the advice i force upon others. Time for mommy to wipe my tears away.

Its a ghetto. A drug and crime infested slum.
Imagine voting for that. Kinda getting what they wanted. Cant vote for it then cry after the fact when dont work out. Then they vote the same people again and cry victim when it gets worse. Then they vote them in again and cant understand why its so bad. Insanity and ignorance at its finest. Hope they didnt pay over 60 grand for their education
@@pickupmidland3523buying a house in toronto is affordable and a sound investment. Rent in toronto is very affordable. The city streets are very safe and clean. There is basically 0 homeless people. The sub way and city buses are safest in north america. If i was living on the west i would move to lovely toronto. Buy 4 houses. Live in 2 and rent 2 out. Thats how affordable and secure toronto is is that if i were somebody else i would run east to toronto.

This is not a housing problem this is an addiction problem. even when given housing they do not stay. They need to be arrested, charged and incarcerated to get straight and be offered services.

When you want society to collapse, you don't need to change the laws.
You just stop enforcement of existing ones.....
My wife and I were there last month, and our Uber driver took us right down this street to get to the hotel. We were horrified. But over the course of our stay, it became part of our Vancouver experience. A government official who happened to be sitting next to us at the Rolling Stones show told us there are several factors leading to how East Hasting came to be like this. One was the closure of a mental facility where so many of these people belong. Another is the moderate climate. We found that these people are not dangerous and just keep to themselves. They don't ask passersby for money. Fentanyl mixed with horse tranquilizer is their high of choice. It's a sad situation with no solutions. Most of these people are not homeless. They have places to stay. Some make a little money off things they steal/find and then sell on the street. The street looks normal early in the morning, with all the trash picked up and before those people populate the sidewalk.
Most of these homeless are people damaged by the mental health industry. Drugged when they were youths with pseudoscience then added street drugs, they have no hope to get better.
IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE CONDITIONS LIKE THIS ALSO IN DEVELOPED COUNTRIES.
بہت اچھا @ کیا بات ہے ! شکر ہے کہ ان ممالک میں بھی ایسے مناظر دیکھنے کو ملے ، ہمیں غریب، اور تھرڈ ورلڈ کہنے والے موجاں کرو 😝😜🤣
😂😂😂😂
Согласна! 😄😄😄🇷🇺
Betul..👍
Вы не третий мир. Вас просто обокрали сша и Европа.
Third world are not too like that. Dunia ketiga ga gitu gitu amat, bro.
This scenario is exactly the same in London, New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Miami, Paris and many other cities in the so called highly developed and first world countries.
Sure they are first world and they are racism. Call another country with second, three, five and six world😅. How many world in the earth ???
Also Germany, UK, Greece and France 😊
This is clear testimony to the complete collapse of a civil society. We need to set up large " tent city" centers that can address the multiple issues of homelessness, thereby clearing public spaces of this blight so regular, tax paying citizens do not have to contend with this.
" tent city centers " where ?
This is Canada. People will freeze. they don’t need “tent cities” they need housing.
There used to be tent cities in many vancouver parks. they were taken down by the city because they became hives of violence, drug sales, depravity and out of control fires. That and they kept growing out of control to the neighbouring areas, turning the surrounding areas to crap.
So what are you doing to stop the billionaire class who is causing this? Their wealth holding is causing this excess poverty. There’s more than enough resources on this planet for everyone if they weren’t hoarded by a select few.
@@ThePhysicalReaction some parks..not alot.
That man that picked up that blind womans walking stick 😊
Makes me happy I was down there on the streets for 15 years people sat it's bad well let's just say fuck around and find out ....there's a lot of good people down there
Vancouver city council needs to implement cleaning up or addressing those issues. Why are they hired for?
Government leaders are hired so they can collect their life time pension, send and do business elsewhere where but not looking or working to address their own country they live in.
That is worse than Kensington Ave in Philly...and that's saying something...
I’ve seen people recording people on Kensington, and they don’t get past five people without someone screaming at them for recording or attacking them. So it’s definitely not worse in that respect.
@@miked.7245People attack the same way DTES, I’ve seen them break windows on cars if people drive by filming. This guys stealth
@@miked9466 now I carry a big lug nut on a string with me when I go outside since even having pepper spray on you to defend yourself is illegal here.
@@miked9466 i’ve been attacked five times in the last four years. Twice by cops. I don’t commit crimes and I’ve never been attacked in my adult life until 2020. For 20 years, people would leave me alone, even if they didn’t like what I was doing. I don’t know what happened to people here in Canada. But I’m not sticking around to find out.

Thanks Trudeau. Keep sending money to the Ukraine instead of helping these Canadians.
He didn’t just send money to Ukraine. He spent $23 million on an LGBTQ statue. Anyway that money doesn’t go to Ukraine. It goes to American weapons manufacturers to then send weapons to Ukraine to get blown up so they get more money to make more weapons. So you know who’s really getting the money.
The problem is bigger than any politician. This has been going on for decades.
Would you prefer sending our sons and daughters to fight in Putins war.?
Bro it's been like this since the 80's, It's way bigger than any political leader., you want to blame someone blame the BC liberals for closing all the mental health centers and sending these people to fend for themselves.
How can 1 man have that much power unless the police that swore to protect us are in on it. Very very bad people that risk their lives to attack their own people instead of protecting us like they swore

It's horrible ! Very sad and bad . I know lots of families in Vancouver with farms and huge homes . They are filthy rich . Vancouver is a beautiful city. I can't imagine how this can happen to this great city . These homeless people are responsible to some extent for this. They started doing drugs and don't want to be responsible Canadians. However, the government is responsible for Canadian citizens who are in these kinds of situations. They should not be allowed to sit there and do drugs. They should be provided with basic necessities of life. But the government should do something about it asap. It's so shameful and embarrassing for Vancouver City.
30 years ago Canada was so called paradise of the human!30 years later Canada so became like hell!it’s very sad to me!🙏🙏🙏!

That's pretty sad no one should have to live like that 😮
but they choose to, this is not a housing problem even when given housing they leave this is an addiction problem and they need to be arrested, charged and incarcerated to staighten up and then be assessed and offered services preferably far away from this culture
We are lucky here on the Philippine we have own house we can eat 3x a day we are blessed
Amen, that's right

When I was visiting Vancouver I tried really hard to find this infamous street.
Showing just one Vancouver street doesn't mean that entire Canada looks like this.
Doesn't make sense
Didn't expect this. In Africa we think everyone is rich out there.

why dont they make rooms inside those store fronts, what a sad situation here in canada
We need to create a work camp in remote northern BC or the Yukon, anyone who doesn’t agree to get clean and become a functioning member of society will be sent there, it would suit them,seeing as these people like staying in tents….
I always hear a lot of good things and how clean Canada is 😮
Canada never use to be like this,,,I;m glad I got a home
I left Belarus. Now I live in Canada and when my canadian husband asks if I like Vancouver- I laugh as if it is a funny joke.
What I am suppose to like there? Dirt, homeless people, drugs, garbage everywhere?
Canada changed a lot.
If I visited Canda now and saw it the first time - I would return back with the first flight.
Do not tell me to go back now- if I go now - Canada will loose another DOCTOR!

It's like an extra for a movie.)
Legalizing dangerous drugs is tantamount to human distraction And lead also to the downfall of a community or a country. Why a Canadian government can't afford to find ways and means to settle this issues.? Canadian government should provide shelter and give them decent house to live in. Give them work for them to survive.
Oh my God I thought, you can only find this kind of scenery in the third world country - like in the Philippines, I'm shocked upon seeing this embarrassing situation country like Canada and U.S.A.
Канада и США это уже страны четвёртого мира
Calling on the government Justin Trudeau to provide shelters for these needy people.
Same like in US Philadelphia
I’m tired of people calling this homelessness. This is a drug problem. A completely different issue than homelessness. I’m not saying that homeless people are not living on the streets, but the drug problem far exceeds that in these areas.
People on the street with drug problems have completely lost their own self respect and the respect of people and community. Yes they have a problem that they cannot fix alone, but they also have adopted a form of entitlement due the relaxed laws and relief of responsibility leading to their own conclusion of why bother to cleanup? Literally.
They can’t be housed because they are reckless, will not respect the environment given to them and won’t accept treatment.
Discipline needs to be structured into an enforced secure housing system with treatment and then graduating to lessons on life skills, or stay locked up in a centre if they don’t want those opportunities.
They’ll be healthier and safer in a ward than where they are now.
I WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND .
THE GOVERNMENT'S FROM ALL OVAR THE WORLD WHAT PEOPLE'S TO DIE TILL 2030 MORE THAN 50/ 100 .
THIS IS THE REASON NOBODY WILL HALP THEM. 😢😢😢.
Where do they go to use the toilet?
There are public washrooms at Main/Hastings and Cambie/Hastings plus many more along the street provided by such as injection sites/food charity organizations But alleys are still the main sites.
Most of the people seem to be high on toxic substances. So obviously does not matter where body waste is going. Terrible situation.

Same here in south Africa 🇿🇦,what precisely is going on in the world.
Vancouver is Canada too😁
We see the same social conditions across Canada on a smaller scale with just as outrageous results.
What happens in Vancouver eventually makes its way across Canada. Many of the government's crazy, harmful and senseless social experiments are first tried out there. Then the Good For You Spin Doctors declare it a success, even though the reality shows otherwise, and we deal with this insanity in our towns and cities across Canada. With this creeping permissive socialism being forced down our throats, our living standards and quality of life is rapidly deteriorating.
This is not socialism, this is capitalism in its finest. The extreme divide between rich and poor with little middle class.
I agree with you. This is spreading everywhere in Canada. The government is pretending to be socialist in its crazy policies but truly is out for themselves and their corporate buddies. The western worlds are falling to pieces.
@@1is7ener65 Paying people money and enabling them to be idle, giving them free drugs with lax criminal penalties and laws is not capitalism. Neither is making the commercial environment hostile with high taxes, excessive government interference and decriminalizing thievery. Socialism makes businesses shut down and leave, just as you see on these Walking Tour videos.
Check out the government policies and living conditions in Cuba, which our country is coming to resemble.
@@Curlyblonde Welfare in this country is $600 a month for an adult. Hardly enough for people to decide to get lazy and live the good life on the streets. Where is the real money in this country going?! Not to the people or small businesses! It’s going to the government elite. Lax drug laws is not for the users or the dealers. it’s so the cities can hire less police forces and quit tying up the courts so less civil servant jobs are needed. The government is saving money by allowing legal drugs and firing government workers. Capitalism is about the money and not the people.
