East Vancouver - Taking Back Our Neighbourhood

East Van Traffic Coalition

Share your story

The petition captured a moment. What matters now is detail: which street, which lane, what changed, and when.

Tell us what happened where you live. With your permission we will publish it here and share it, so the people making these decisions have to read it.

Street names and specifics help most. What was it like before, what is it like now, and when did you notice the difference?

What does your story involve?

Tick any that apply. This helps us group submissions.

Optional, but it makes your account much harder to dismiss.

We never publish surnames.

Never published. We use it only if we need to check something with you.

How would you like to be credited?

Nothing is published automatically. A volunteer reads every submission first. You can ask us to remove your story at any time by replying to the email we send you.

Not sure what to write?

Six residents sat down with a recorder and answered the same questions. You can read what they said, or listen to them say it.

Or say it in the group

Plenty of people would rather talk to their neighbours than fill in a form. That works too. Post what happened on your street in the community group, where people who live nearby will actually see it.

Sending it here as well means we can publish it on the site and put it in front of Council. The two are not the same audience.
