It’s easy to dismiss the area as “worst neighbourhood in Vancouver” and leave it at that, but I don’t think that should be the extent of our impression for something more complex. After talking to some of the people there, one thing I’ve learned is that there are so many more factors that create the complicated social issues happening in the DTES then I would have imagined. I wouldn’t do the issue justice to attempt to explain in one caption - but I hope you take the time to learn more.
