An affordable rental project for residents living with mental illness failed to cross the finish line in Port Coquitlam [Part of Vancouver Metro Area] council chambers recently, with several councillors expressing concern about the shortage of parking.

B.C. Housing proposed a six-storey building at 2365 and 2371 Kelly Avenue for residents with disabilities – prioritizing residents with mental illness. The units would be offered at either rent-geared-to-income or shelter allowance rates.

In the wake of The New York Times’ report last month on the Trump administration’s redistricting efforts in Texas, more details have emerged about the attempt to pressure the state’s leaders into a potentially unlawful — and certainly illiberal — mid-decade redraw of its congressional districts in order to shore up the GOP’s chances in next year’s midterms. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has instructed his state’s Republican-led legislature to craft a redistricting plan this summer, in a move my MSNBC colleague Hayes Brown aptly assessed as a mockery of the Voting Rights Act.
