What a 'time-capsule'. I was living on Pendrell Street, not far from where you were on the beach. And strangely, I still have a 1990 calendar, that I saved because it was commemorating the centennial of trams and buses in the region.
@@robingourde3324 argghh... i have nothing against people moving into a city and living there but it's the way in which we are living which is creating so many issues: traffic, pollution, homelessness, lack of public input and democracy... etc, etc. We need to learn and change and do things better. I did notice, however, that Vancouver did improve last I was there a few years ago, in terms of the new skytrain links, and bike paths... at least some improvements, but the real estate game is nasty, nasty stuff...
@@robingourde3324 Lack of foreign property ownership laws coupled with the repatriation of Hong Kong to China in 1997 is what brought Vancouver to where it is today.
There was actually things happening in those days and if you wanted, you could go out to a trendy nightclub and go to White Tower Pizza after at 2:30am, or Binos
So much has changed since then, now you have to be a millionaire own property there, V.I. too some time soon and in the west end down town there was just a few drunks drinking out of bagged whisky bottles, and now there are Fentanyl junkies all around there keeping the paramedics going 24/7 with no end in sight.
If i had a time machine, i would go back to find the singer of this song and tell them, please don't sing that song. also, warn everyone that the ugly "mom" jeans will forever tarnish '80s fahion.
Now you have to be rich to live in Vancouver, or any of the suburbs for that matter. And so crowded, ugly, small condos everywhere you look. Unfortunate.
@@infinitecanadian now you know how the natives felt when your ancestors arrived. Oh, is it only ok for white people to colonize? Better learn manderin.

If u listen to this song more than 5 times its guaranteed you will end up a drug addict and homeless in East Hasting
It’s true. Hey uhh, gotta buck?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh how I would love to go back in that time 1990 and be 18 years old again
Damn , you are old
The music can turn someone into a crack addict.
Vancouver, I miss the way you were back then. It's horrible now; far too many people and too unsafe nowadays. Thanks for the memories ♥
Me too. I moved years ago.
That music makes me want to commit harakiri.
😭😂😂🤣🤣
Me Too - with a Dull Butter Knife ~ Haha! 😂
* Does anyone Know Who that Singer is ? She's AWFUL!!
Holy moley ! Made wish it was the 90s again !!!
Glad someone appreciates 1990 Vancouver.

I moved to Canada in 2019, now 2022, it's interesting to see this beautiful city how it was long time ago
man the chick singing is fucking brutal
Love Vancouver...watching in 2021. ❤️❤️❤️
Before The Invasion Vancouver used to be a GREAT place to live
Vancouver was so clean and orderly in 1990. It’s a disgusting hole now.
That summer they were filming "Short Time" in downtown Vancouver, great movie, best car chase EVER!!!
It was like a heaven on earth
When there were only junkies in the west end.
I was 3 years old, and mostly at home. Honestly, the times when I did go out are very memorable.
Great city if your making at least $100 k a year
*If you are making.
@@ketandeswal4336 F OFF
Now that's already outdated. It's now a quarter million a year just to afford a condo
Fuck youtube
I can't afford to love here anymore unfortunately I will have to say goodbye soon 💔
Everybody with any sense should move from here. It's going to get REALLY bad here over the next years.
@@surreygeorge11а я наоборот хочу приехать из Москвы
Vancouver got meaner and uglier shortly after this video... I remember.
It got Campbellized
It happened after Expo 86. Vancouver became a "World Class City". The Olympics helped it further along.

What a pleasant video recommendation. Thanks for the upload David!

4 years after Expo
The year I was born
Over 30 years ago now, wow
All these people are a forgotten minority now. Rip old Van
Is that the listel hotel?
The city may have been a little sweeter then, sour grapes now, not gonna mention any names just point and whistle.
look at all the dignity
Still good year
Glass towers and fetty now.
Pre invasion was so nice
You mean invasion by Europeans to native lands
30 years
What camera was used in this video? The quality looks great!
It actually is good quality video for the time
Remember it's 1990 the camera's back then recorded on to a VHS tape
@@trentdabs5245 SVHS metal tape was already common: Sony Hi-8.

What about killing baby Hitler? That should be on the list.
today tell them "leggings" have destroyed the feminine mystique.
PERFECT soundtrack choice 😂

I live 15 mins From DownTown VanCity 😎
Haha peasant, I live right downtown Seymour and Nelson.
@@the6ig6adwolf Haha commoner, I live on East Hastings and Granville. 😎
Vancouver (before it became Asia's most whitest city lol)
It is pretty much the same now.
God damn, how many wrong turns does this city need to take in order to garner such a doomer following
I like this song! Who is it?
Millions of Chinese came after this. So sad.
Where's this song from? I love it.
You should see what it looks like know, urine and homeless
Probably the worst song I've ever heard in my life.
😂

Have a tissue!
I'm poor and live in Fairview, no complaints.

@@wickerman26 Have another tissue, kid. Ask for a larger allowance.
What happened to all the white people?
Gone back to where they came from (Europe) they aren't missed
Who sang this song😂
Before Hongcouver!!!
Joe Ricci You must be a fucking bigot boomer.
Ray Chow the way he said it was wrong, but he is right in a way, this was before the population was majority of Asians (me included)
@@rwkc3004 Awww, are you feeling left out? Now you know how many people feel when they go places where they have Chinese signs and no English.
@@infinitecanadian now you know how the natives felt when your ancestors arrived. Oh, is it only ok for white people to colonize? Better learn manderin.
@@jgp7414 Never mind that bullshit; Canada was already well established when my ancestors arrived.
Long before Vancouver became the pretentious, clinical city it is today.
Worst music ever jfc
