Had Bing Thom not died prematurely, he would have gone after @AIBCconnected for its gentleman's agreement rule that architects can't criticize other projects. Reportedly a certain major arch'l firm in Vancouver reported Bing to AIBC for his letter opposing #105Keefer. #vanpoli
@AIBCconnected Bing Thom intended to go after AIBC's muzzling rule & publicly ask them:
"What is the point of architecture if there's no discourse? What is the role of the architect in society? Do we have a public responsibility or are we just hired guns?"
AIBC's rule is destructive.

@AIBCconnected Bing's death was a terrible loss for public discourse in Vancouver. BTW he also helped us with a fight I co-founded against the proposed downtown casino expansion (we beat the expansion partly thx to him). You could count on him to do the right thing. AIBC tries to block this.
Speaker now outlining history of tent city at 58 W. Hastings. City & police shut down tent city, but resistance has continued. #vanpoli
Saddened & surprised at ignorance of claims like: #105keefer is "just about emotions/nostalgia".
No. It's about a current community in crisis. Seniors, usually marginalized by public process, spoke up to try & save their homes.
This is their concrete day to day lives.
