In my hometown, we're quashing human rights to make room for the world cup! It's not a smokescreen, it's the justification.

Just saw this, i had to laugh because at first i thought you were talking about Mexico and was picturing something much worse than a bylaw with some fines for things like unauthorized street vending which the maximum is less than what you would make renting out your tent spot for a few days during the tournament

From your link: “Further, the enforcement of this Bylaw, like all laws enacted in our current colonial and racist legal system…”

Practically no Vancouverite would read this page and take it seriously.

You must not think all the freedom they're taking away with this bylaw was important freedom, since you chose to fixate on some irrelevant piece of text.
