Talk:Strathcona, Vancouver

Untitled
I am a resident of the community, living at 1162 E. Georgia Street. I am definitely NOT a historian but I have a great deal of interest in the history of the area and was really surprised to see that nothing had been written about it in Wiki thus far.

I hope that other residents will see this article and become inspired to hep me edit it.

Email me at lesnyulak@eaton.com if you would like to discuss!

---> I WILL CERTAINLY HEP YOU EDIT THIS ARE-TICKLE

MODEL? I took out the bit about it being a model for opposing the current highway exansion. Without a citation to show that this is indeed the case, ie, that today's opposition groups are modelling their campaign after SPOTA's, or maybe a rewording (inspire instead of model?) with an explanation of what it means, I don't think it belongs because, frankly, I don't buy it. It sounds like a plug for the current campaign by someone trying give it cred by associating with a successful one in the past. Both campaigns involve roads and protesters, but have little else in common. People fighting to not be displaced from their homes is very different from not liking cars.
