For 40 years, COPE has advocated for ordinary working people and families, those on fixed income, renters and home-owners, small and sustainable business, and the neighbourhoods and communities that make up the cultural diversity that is Vancouver. While Vancouver is one of the most beautiful cities on the planet, it is also Canada's ground-zero for drug addiction, homelessness and poverty. COPE has real policies that help the entire community deal with the issues that face our neighbourhoods. If we come together, and work together, we can build a Vancouver for everyone.
