NIABY means something different in Vancouver

Or maybe it means the same thing. A group of west-side citizens don't want integrated social housing to help addicted and mentally ill people, in their neighbourhoods.

They'd probably view these people as garbage, after all.

I wrote more about it at http://www.jdwanless.ca/healthwonk/2006/09/15/drug-abuse-mental-illness-and-nimbys/
