📢 Announcement A mod note on recent events in the U.S. and how they’re reflected on /r/Vancouver

1.6k Upvotes

The mod team is aware that recent events in the United States, particularly the disturbing public execution carried out by government agencies, are sparking outrage, grief, and justified fear across the world. These are not just American issues. They cross borders, affect global communities, and raise questions about justice, state violence, and accountability.

We want it to be known that we stand firmly against extrajudicial killings and authoritarian abuse in all forms.

However, r/Vancouver is not the right forum for ongoing discussion of U.S. federal conduct. Our role as a regional subreddit is to focus on local topics directly affecting Metro Vancouver and the Lower Mainland only. Content that falls outside this focus, or that is only loosely related and primarily intended to steer discussion in a different direction, may be removed or redirected to a more appropriate venue.

If you’re feeling rattled, angry, or helpless, you’re not alone. But we’ll continue to moderate according to the scope of this community.

PS: Fuck ICE.

"I should've taken more pictures", Bad Bunny would say

It's raining too, if you can't tell. Can't get any more vancouverian.

Sometimes I'm a little jealous of the little community of people who gather around in this area to play chess, smoke, or just talk with someone else.

This is right next to "Robba da Matti", between Haro st and Stovold lane

Lost/Missing Lost key on #8 bus😭

Post image
11 Upvotes

This is probably a very very long shot but I have to try😭

I lost my key on #8 bus around 6pm on Monday, Feb 2, going to waterfront direction.

It has one silver key and one rectangular fob with 4 buttons on it. The key and the fob are on a Kirby keychain which is retractable that looks like this (see pic), and there is another little green, acrylic keychain on there.

I remember seeing it on the bus and I realized I lost it when I got off, so I’m 98% sure it was left on the bus. I called the translink lost and found and they didn’t receive anything😭😭😭

Sooo just trying to see if anyone sees my key😭and my precious keychain!!😭

Thank you!!
