I had a friend who was living like this in Vancouver about 2 years ago during the pendemic her drug of choice was Crack but she got herself out of this situation is still in Vancouver but no longer living like this she vows to never live like this again
Rachel is the politician. We are living in a capitalist society. Rich survive and poor become poorer. The Western world always says Africa is a shit hole. But Donald Trump forgot about America, Canada, Europe as well . Just a disgrace to humanity
@@susanrachel5583 I live on Van-island and there are a couple cities here getting like this too, and I know full well just how expensive its getting here on the coast, but I'm more of a realist. now with that said, I can say honestly say that most on the streets of Vancouver would not be living this way if they were not addicted to the toxic drug "fentanyl", As most know now this area has become ground zero for the opioid epidemic in Canada that's now in its seventh year....
@@truthadvocacy Are you implying that I care less for the people? I care very much but that will not help them. Last Nov I spent $30K on rehab and step housing for a family member that did OK for 6 months and now is back using. I still feel that animals do not deserve to live in homeless camps on sidewalks with addicts fighting all around them. They have no choice. The addicts have choices. Do you care?
@@dodgingbullets3503 Yes, they are all junkies. My friend lives in an apartment in that neighborhood, does multiple videos out her window. They smoke constantly, shoot drugs in their necks using her window for a mirror. They sneak into the hallways and use it as a toilet. There have been 5 deaths in 2 days. Those homeless that are not addicted do not stay with the addicts but go elsewhere. It is far too dangerous. Put your damn thinking cap on. Lots of sympathy for the homeless that are trying to get out. Zero sympathy for druggies that inflict their dysfunction on all the poor residents forced to live in a junkie dystopia.
Thats horrible! Full of garbage on the floor. What are they doing and what are they waiting for in the middle of a famous city?? They can sit around in the countryside not in a expensive city, where people, businesses and shops are working and paying rent! Why does the government tolerate that and not clean it up?!
Wow.....being Vancouver born and growing up in both Vancouver and N Burnaby in the late fifties, early sixties.....and having moved away a few decades ago......I am astounded as to what the politicians have done to my city....oh....and having worked as a disability welfare worker, I am completely disgusted by both partys.....the Liberlas under Gordon Campbell increased the homeless on the strrt by hundreds literally overnight....and the NDP has only doubled down on how to make things even worse.
You should also film the uptown parts of this beautiful city. My granddaughter and I visited Vancouver and Victoria in August 2022 and were amazed at the difference in different parts of the city. The Police do not arrest or remove people under the influence of drugs, because the drugs are legal. Barmy.
I'm from LA and our massive homeless problem looks so different than this. This almost looks post apocalyptic or something. A lot of these people in Vancouver look like they wouldn't normally be homeless, yet they are. Something about the way Vancouver looks seems very artsy to me. Like it was meant to be very cutting edge hipster. So sad 😢
@@JetBlackBerry the downtown east side of Van (where this was filmed) has always had a significant down on your luck element since at least the 1970s - but nothing like the way it looks now. It is a sad, horrible nightmare of zombie drug addiction now. I was a long time resident of Van (don't live there anymore) and I am shocked, it is just awful. So much human misery..... so awful.
I've been through there many times and although it's a much larger and more extensive mess than Kensington, Philadelphia, it's no where near as dangerous.
Wow. I'm in shock. I've followed you for a while now mate. But I can't believe my eyes. Things look 100 times worser. It's not looking good pal. All the best 👍
That's clear. Trudeau simply printed a lots of CAD and put them all into his pockets. Now these poor people who cannot have access to the printing machine have no money to buy food and rent a house
I didn't expect that there's a place in Canada like this, why they don't have a job why Canada keep hiring different nationality to work there instead hired some Canadian and their government what kind of help they received?
I reckon all those anglo countries are covering up the real extent of homelessness. In Australia there are now over 200,000 homeless people. That makes australia to have the highest rate of homeless per capita among OECD countries! A huge country with only 25 million people and super rich with mineral resources. Similar to Canada.
Did you ask the question how these rich people became rich if the taxation seems working if the median wage is $2000 AUD per week before taxes. How long does it take to save the money and buy a gold mine for example??
Building _upwards_ while halting expansion _outwards_ causes home prices and rents to skyrocket, shunting the lifetime earnings of residents squarely into the pockets of the chosen few. Those most affected cheer each time another tract of land is "protected" tightening the snare on their own demise. A quarter million homeless in Canada with 1000 deaths each month. A major issue in this country is the vast expanse between cities, but no land may be spared for housing. Organized protest in an effort to save a grove of trees meets each attempted use of land, yet more than 100 million acres of forest extends all the way from the West Coast to the East Coast.
This artificially created land shortage serves the purpose of financial institutions, but costs consumers from five to above twenty times the normal price of a home. For each $100,000 of market price, if land is $20,000 and the building is $80,000 lenders will not advance funds beyond the value of the indestructible portion, which is the land, itself. A deliberately restricted supply caused prices to skyrocket with the cost of the building and the cost of land exchanging places in the equation. Now, for each $100,000 spent on a home the building accounts for $20,000 of the purchase price and land makes up the remainder, which is $80,000. Banks lend an amount that matches the indestructible portion of the acquisition, which is land. In an ironical twist this arrangement enables buyers to finance their purchase by paying several times the normal cost of a home.
Canada produces cereal crops and livestock that are its staples, which are grown some distance from cities. We have highways and railways to haul in these products. This country also produces some fruit and vegetables during a relatively short growing season. The reality is that 95% of the food that we consume arrives from or through the USA. Major retailers are not going to snub reliable suppliers in order to acquire local produce for a few weeks each year. That has not kept land from being declared "agricultural" in an effort to prevent its use for housing and that has inspired movements to place a halt on the use of _all_ land. In order to save land for agriculture, forest land should be made available on which to construct homes. Legislation and regulations have severely restricted the home building and home improvement industries, the two industries for which we are admirably suited with our abundance of land, lumber, stone, minerals and other material. We have skyrocketing property prices preventing people from becoming established and a growing gulf between property owners and the remainder that cannot be bridged with any amount of effort.
Housing has been turned into an unregulated financial paper market, with public officials that personally benefit at the expense of citizens, setting conditions to constrain supply that results in astronomical prices, with rent at maximum levels and home ownership beyond reach.
*Footnotes:*
¹ A result of this cunning _sleight of hand_ is that purchasers make a down payment of $200,000 and finance the remaining $800,000 for a home that should only cost $200,000 to begin with if it were not for a deliberately restricted supply that caused prices to escalate to absurd levels.
² Cities were built on fertile flood plains at the confluence of rivers. Halting use of land beyond these areas that were developed a century earlier does nothing to enhance agricultural production, while astronomical price levels make this land unfeasible for growing crops.
³ Average price of a home in Vancouver in 1969 was $23,939. In Winnipeg $13,588. That equals $23,939/$7284 = 3.3 years salary in Vancouver of a new degree holder or $13,588/$7284 = 1.9 years salary in Winnipeg.
¹³ Civic governments reap a bonanza from inflated property assessments.
"Average price of a home in Vancouver in 1969 was $23,939". Now, it's at least ten times that price, well above "inflation", while salaries haven't kept up with the increase in cost of living.
@@truthadvocacy In 1969 I earned $7284 per annum that increased to $9180 eighteen months later. A home in Point Grey was on the market for $29,000. An offer of $27,500 was finally accepted. An equivalent home in Winnipeg cost $11,000. Vancouver was an expensive city. Prior to 1972 it was difficult to sell a home and might take two or more years. Then legislation that placed a stop to the use of land turned home ownership into a financial instrument and created a virtually monopoly market with monopoly prices.
(Average sales price of houses in Vancouver in 1969: $23,939.)*
$27,500/$7284 = 3.8. In 1969 a home cost the equivalent of 3.8 years earnings. Today that home is worth $5,000,000 while an equivalent salary is about $60,000.
Wage rise due to inflation: $60,000/$7284 = 8.2 times.
Cost of home now in terms of equivalent earnings: $5,000,000/$60,000 = 83.3 times or the equivalent of 83.3 years earnings.
A price comparison yields: $5,000,000/$27,500 = 181.8 times its former cost.
The home should cost $60,000 x 3.8 = $228,000.
With both earnings and inflation taken into consideration $5,000,000/$228,000 = 21.9 times its normal value.
The market for homes used to be a free market like that for cars and persons at each income level could afford to buy one as homeowners whose income increased moved on to newer, more expensive homes leaving their old homes to be purchased by new entrants.
Home prices may be verified from actual transactions for those years at the public library. My example is for Point Grey. A home in East Vancouver cost about $12,000 or less at that time.

Actually it was always a bit sketchy in that area but it was our BC premier Gordon Campbell and then Christy Clark that got the ball rolling. One day there were a handful of homeless, then only weeks later, hundreds. Vancouver has the mildest winters in Canada so has always been a magnet for transients.
Free sex, promiscuity, drinking alcoholic beverages..drugs..these are cities in the Americas..a city full of..everyone's iniquity...people here are free to do whatever they want...nothing
Never been(and sure as hell never want to go) to Vancouver. Do they have public restrooms or is it like here in Cali where it's on the streets? I'm sure it was once a nice city. This is becoming most big cities tho.
"Love all, feed all" - heck no! Don't feed them! Don't be a darn enabler. Think of the good people, the families with children that have to live in that area because they can't afford a high rent, or pay a mortgage.
@@renataostertag6051 Thank you. Nothing is just one sided. We all suffer if you love an addict. At least I got her off the street. I have no regrets for giving help, just immeasurable, endless sadness at what is happening to her and of course if she O/Ds.
How many dudes you devorced to afford rent and mortgage?? See the average salary and average house price!!! You kids and their kids will end up homeless like all these poor people!
thank you, Lord, I'm a poor Filipino, but I have a house to live in, a house I can call my own. foods when I'm hungry. That's why I consider myself lucky. Praise God our Lord. I am saddened by this situation. Hoping rich people could help this homeless individual.
Consider returning home to live there instead of hanging around cities doing nothing. I am sure you can think of something useful there such as growing your own foods, rearing chicken etc. Believe me it is much better than living on the streets or under bridges.
Why does the local and central authority tolerate this? Local residents who are not of this sad community deserve to be protected from such misery and squalor. Do they lobby their authorities to clear up this utterly disgraceful state of affairs?
they will clean it up once the property values are down so it can be bought for pennies on the dollar!!! This area is also their money laundering hub and thier scapegoat where they can always point at when their corruption is in the light!! The powers that be will always give a handout rather that a hand up!!! Poverty primping at its best!!!!!!

The poor people who live in the buildings in front of which are these homeless drug addict zombies. Can the government do something about it or is the city turning into Zombieland part by part. What about other major cities in Canada?

@@leoavdeev1566 в США тоже самое. Через 20 лет 80% населения США будет бездомными. Все верно говорите: напечатали денег, в том числе для Зеленского, дали эти деньги гос-оллигархам, те скупили дома, а простые люди неприближенные к Трюдо и Бидону - идут жить на улицу.

Надо трудовому народу США и Канады сносить эту гниль у власти и тех , кто за ними стоит и устраивает войны по всему миру...
So sad. Wish there was an answer.
Its truly sad the decadence of a wealthy nation is evolving, the ill conceived governance of the political elites is telling
This is so sad that the government would let this happen. We need a army for this to combat the drugs Just sick to see a great Canada go to this.😢
That was Betty walking her dog so nice lady see her good stuff she sells ,hang out ..
Sad thing is I have seen it worse then this most days. This looks like he avoided the really bad places. It's really depressing that the "main strip" Granville street is like this and that is lined with clubs...
Seeing these bums makes me realize how lucky we are.
thks for filming the truth it will help the younger people in vancouver to not get hooked on crack or coke
90% are young people .
Because boomers spent all the income of subsequent generations. Look at them closely, there will be your kids and their kuds on these streets

If those people could learn a little Spanish and go around to the U.S. southern border, they could walk into the states and be given room, board, spending money, etc.
This is Canada!! It's where RUSH is oh hell to the no!!!!
Looks exactly like the streets in Kensington Philadelphia
Canada has never lived so badly as under Putin.)))
Russia lives far better under Putin, as hundreds of videos of Russian cities are proof!
All USD and CAD are in Zelenskiy pockets! What else did you expect ?
Путин молодец, он очень много делает для России и её народа. У нас такого ужаса нет!❤️ ✊🇷🇺
i wanted to visit canada but after seeing this, any country that allows its working residents to have to live inbetween this chaos isnt somehwere id like to stay, and i guess there is nice parts like everywhere but this is politics punishing the people
How come no tents ?
This is what the end of civilization looks like
public sidewalks very clearly cluttered with human trash. public services refuse to clean up the trash. it's a mystery.
People who live and work in this area must share wealth given them thru the printed currency
OMG... What happened? Vancouver used to be the place super rich Hong Kongers set up their dream homes.

Shame of Trudeau's Canada.
ZERO SYMPATHY.
Will you take in our homeless in America. And if it's to much of a problem please take biden and harris also . Thank you
camel toe harris and sleepy joe biden...no thanks
IS THIS HOLLYWOOD BLVD???
Similar!
Does this Homeless mess exist in China? They have a billion people
Disgraceful. With all the programed in place in Canada there is no need for this squalor. Come down hard on druggies and dealers and the problem disappeares. Woosie Canadians get what they deserve.
Good job china

Can the 500 million Trudeau send to Ukraine be used to help these Canadian who are in a deep hole.
Is there more love to corrupt Zelensky than former tax paying Canadian who are hurting ?
I want to cry …I used to live on West 7th in Vancouver and work on Granville Street….What the hell is going on…..I cried when I watched this…. Look at the graffiti it’s unbelievable….Is this Trudeau’s fault ….This is like the streets of Calcutta…just squaller….
Actually it was always a bit sketchy in that area but it was our BC premier Gordon Campbell and then Christy Clark that got the ball rolling. One day there were a handful of homeless, then only weeks later, hundreds.
Vancouver has the mildest winters in Canada so has always been a magnet for transients.
Worse than calcutta friend
Oh my got what happened to the beautiful Vancouver i visited in 1998, this is very sad.
nobody has the right to destroy an area like this, and yes its sad but there are people who live and work in this area who do not deserve this
Thank your stars you have a living. Do not forget they had one too.
i no see anyone destroys same thing,,i only see zombies.
So true .I mean most of them have never worked.
@@bhagyaveer most of them prefer living on the streets dude..
Free sex, promiscuity, drinking alcoholic beverages..drugs..these are cities in the Americas..a city full of..everyone's iniquity...people here are free to do whatever they want...nothing
Who is the mayor of this city ? What is his or her job ?
Never been(and sure as hell never want to go) to Vancouver. Do they have public restrooms or is it like here in Cali where it's on the streets? I'm sure it was once a nice city. This is becoming most big cities tho.
These folks shit on the street . they do not care .
And it's only getting worse, day by day, year by year; what has this town been turning into? A TWD episode.
"Love all, feed all" - heck no! Don't feed them! Don't be a darn enabler. Think of the good people, the families with children
that have to live in that area because they can't afford a high rent, or pay a mortgage.
callous sow!
@@dogwood9023 I have tons of empathy for you Madame. For you and the little children.
@@renataostertag6051 Thank you. Nothing is just one sided. We all suffer if you love an addict. At least I got her off the street. I have no regrets for giving help, just immeasurable, endless sadness at what is happening to her and of course if she O/Ds.
How many dudes you devorced to afford rent and mortgage?? See the average salary and average house price!!! You kids and their kids will end up homeless like all these poor people!
thank you, Lord, I'm a poor Filipino, but I have a house to live in, a house I can call my own. foods when I'm hungry. That's why I consider myself lucky. Praise God our Lord. I am saddened by this situation. Hoping rich people could help this homeless individual.
Kindly tell your Lord to do something for these poor fellows
Consider returning home to live there instead of hanging around cities doing nothing. I am sure you can think of something useful there such as growing your own foods, rearing chicken etc. Believe me it is much better than living on the streets or under bridges.
Not lucky you’re blessed
God is selfish. You do and they don’t 😅
Yes you live in the Philippines I seen the shacks that is over there?
Why does the local and central authority tolerate this? Local residents who are not of this sad community deserve to be protected from such misery and squalor. Do they lobby their authorities to clear up this utterly disgraceful state of affairs?
bcs they dont care simple as that ; its disgusting
they will clean it up once the property values are down so it can be bought for pennies on the dollar!!! This area is also their money laundering hub and thier scapegoat where they can always point at when their corruption is in the light!! The powers that be will always give a handout rather that a hand up!!! Poverty primping at its best!!!!!! There is no way that the drugs coming into countries can be done without the helpp from top to bottom of law enforcement, gov;t, justice system and corporate business period!!!!!
@@supasly1773 True.. Justin is lapdog of the US and will follow in every way. Vancouver had always had been the dream place for the rich people's second home.
We need to bring back psychiatric hospitals with long term in house drug treatment ....
What the f**** are you talking about?? Why do you blame the drugs??? Look at the home prices, look at the average salary! Trudeau printed a lots of CAD and gave the bills to his friends, they bought all the buildings and these poor people left outside. Do not play the fool!
That cell phone store is very brave to open for business.
They probably sell fentanyl on the side. Cmon
Well meaning, generous and charitable people need to understand that their kindness is helping to perpetuate such misery and squalor.
So true... its ludicrous and very far from liberal to allow these mentally ill wrecks to continue their spiral of addiction on the streets.
Callous creatures need to understand that those people need help. Looking the other way is not going to make the problem disappear.
@@truthadvocacy most people think that endless handouts are "help", and if you have that mindset, you're part of the problem, not the solution.
this misery and squalor is perpetuated from corrupt satanic governments , point blank period .. you are really dumb if you think this is not by design
Welfare is designed to ptevent the poor stealung from the rich....its crime prevention.
Nasty place.sad n nasty
I used to live in Vancouver …It was beautiful I can’t believe this……
IS THIS A ZOMBIE MOVIE?
I have been on heroin about 20 years ago for a good few years, Fuck that life never got like that
Vancouver these days reminds like the city of New Reno in Fallout 2 game.
I vacationed in Vancouver 8 years ago and I saw maybe a couple homeless...this is literally worse than here in San Francisco so that's saying alot..very sad
This is just a beginning. In 20 years 80% of the USA population will be like these poor people.
life choices children...
easy explanation
@@truthadvocacywhat’s your answer then genius? You must be a junkie with access to the internet
The government does not ask my choice when they print a lots of USD/CAD bills and put them into their pockets.
Why does it seem like a prequel to the movie "I am Legend"?!
"Oh, Canada is so wonderful; the Canadians are the better version of Americans" Yeah, uh huh, okay. Canadians are human, so enough with the "Angel vs Devil complex". We're all flawed so errors are inevitable.
"Canadians are the better version of Americans"😂😂 Canada is a US appendage.
One very small part of Canada..unlike most states..homeless problem.and we don't have mass shooting every week..God bless the USA.
@@robertford.spendmonthshere1667 The way Canada is heading, I wouldn't be surprised if that next or stabs people like the Brits.
safe supply zombies
WHAT A HELL HOLE.
This is beyond terrible. So many closed and metal bar fenced bars! What about the owners of those bars who were forced to close them down? The poor people who live in the buildings in front of which are these homeless drug addict zombies. Can the government do something about it or is the city turning into Zombieland part by part.
What about other major cities in Canada?
Still no sign of my 2 brother inlaws please if anyone knows of Don Winsell or Stewart Winsell please let them know their brother in Sask are concerned 😟 😨 and contact their bro Richard Winsell I do not want to post our ph number we look here everyday contact here maybe police not sure if they'd help privacy laws

Whoa what has happened. I left Vancouver in 2020 and come pack this year. I use to walk those streets with my dogs and friends. Now I'm actually nervous.
Two years ago, it was like this already!
@@truthadvocacy Yeh I do not doubt it. Covid and inflation wouldn't help the fetanyel problem.
Zombie movies s not just fiction...getting real in milenia..
So.They ve plan for this
These homeless people can speak good English. If they are not lazy, they can find a job easily. Many people don’t speak English, they still can find a job.
Employers prefer to hire immigrants to do menial jobs and pay them a pittance. Ordinary Canadians don't find work because of massive immigration.
Looks like Vancouver has a higher class of street zombie than the ones we have here in the states.
Thinking the same..Philly looks some what better.
Well...ya'know..we pride ourselves..
On our Zombies up here..
But with Trudeau running the show..
There's no brains..so they're hungry.
It is just a beginning. In 20 years 80% of USA population will be like these poor people. 300+ million!!
More places in tbe US are worst than Canada. Philla, kensin, LA are more worst than in Canada.
The next maybe Kensington..
