Summary:
This is a rough draft that describes the work of the Anti-Poverty Committee (APC) and the Downtown Eastside Residents Association (DERA) to defend the rights of tenants being evicted from various buildings (i.e. Marr hotel, Passlin hotel, and Dunsmir house) in the Downtown Eastside. It attributes the evictions to gentrification, which is connected with the 2010 Winter Olympics and also charges the COPE city council with being complicit in these actions of class warfare.
