After headlines from Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, Democracy Watch explores the Mayor's Monday announcement on the City's Empty House Tax. Democracy Watch then turns to a story on local vigils held in honour of the mass murder of Muslim worshippers in Quebec, one year ago. After that, the program returns its focus to City Hall, with a report on the North East False Creek Plan, put before Council on Wednesday. This plan involves the development of the NE False Creek and Strathcona area and the reimagining of Hogan's Alley — the former residential and cultural hub of Vancouver’s Black community.
