    The Paradox of Public Discourse: Designing Vancouver Library Square

    Linda Lewin Graif The Paradox of Public Discourse: Designing Vancouver Library Square rchitecture is a discipline that operates in a complex public A arena. While architecture may be defined as the art and sci­ ence of conceptualizing the built environment, the journey from the drawing board to the constructed artifact is a perilous one. The architect's initial concept, itself subject to constraints of many kinds, must be negotiated with clients, engineers, contractors, financial partners, special interest groups, and the general pub­ lic.

These data are statistically weighted to ensure the sample's regional, age and sex composition reflects that of the actual BC population according to 1996 Census data. With a provincial sample of 800, one can say with 95 percent certainty that the overall results are within +3.5 percentage points of what they would have been had the entire adult BC population been polled.

    Carr, Adriane

    ADRIANE CARR’S PRESENTATION TO THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON ELECTORAL REFORM VICTORIA, BC – SEPTEMBER 27, 2016 • My name is Adriane Carr. I am a Vancouver City Councillor, former Deputy Leader of the Green Party of Canada and former co-founder and Leader of the Green Party of BC. • In 2002 I was the citizen proponent under BC’s Recall and Initiative Act of the Initiative to Establish a Proportional Representation Electoral System in BC. I undertook this initiative because of the highly unfair results of the 2001 BC election under first-past-the-post: 77 of 79 seats won by the Liberals with 57.6% of the vote; 2 seats won by the NDP with 21.5% of the vote no seats for the BC Green Party with12.4% of the vote. • BC’s Recall and Initiative Act requires that the proponent provide the legal wording of the act that could be passed should the initiative be successful. That required research, which was initially undertaken for me by Dr. Brahm Weisman, former Director of UBC’s School of Community and Regional Planning. He presented me with an analysis of various electoral systems, with a recommendation that the best for BC would be a mixed member proportional representation system (MMPR), because it incorporated our current system of voting for a local riding representative, thus making it easy for citizens to understand, and topped up a party’s seat-share to equal its vote-share, thus making it fair and making every vote count—which was the primary concern of voters. • In preparing the legislation I went to New Zealand, which adopted Mixed Member Proportional Representation in 1993, to determine what worked well and what could be improved.

    Students Inside City Hall ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 CITYSTUDIO VANCOUVER • 2017-2018 1 Our Manifesto THE CITYSTUDIO WAY We don’t employ a devil’s advocate at CityS- tudio. We say Yes more than No. We remain curious and stay open to others’ ideas. We learn by doing. By following an idea. By experimenting with our hands. By taking risks. By trying, struggling and failing forward fast. And in the end, we have done something that is real. We find ways to tackle global issues by putting a project on the ground in a local place. We learn that good projects come from good relationships. That working together is the only way it can work. And that we can’t solve a complex problem without hearing from everyone affected by it. We sit in a circle and speak from our hearts and our minds. We learn to listen. We learn to enjoy the long pause that emerges in a rich dialogue. We learn how to design. We find better problems to solve. We learn that aesthetics matter. We work on a team and reflect on our process together. We believe that small projects can add up to big changes in our community, our city and in ourselves. And if we do it right, we will be high fiving at the end. We’ve been to the future and it ends well. Trust the Process. 2 Contents FROM THE MAYOR 3 OUR CO-FOUNDERS 5 WHAT IS CITYSTUDIO 7 HOW WE WORK 9 BY THE NUMBERS 11 SFU PROJECTS 13 UBC PROJECTS 17 BCIT PROJECTS 21 LANGARA PROJECTS 23 10 DIFFERENT THINGS 27 HUBBUB 29 STORIES OF IMPACT 31 CITYSTUDIO NETWORK 33 FINANCIAL REPORT 35 NETWORK & TEAM 37 3 From the Mayor MAYOR GREGOR ROBERTSON CITY OF VANCOUVER Congratulations to CityStudio Vancouver on this pivotal contributing 128,116 hours to advancing our city goals year having achieving the major milestone of becoming and strategies.
