Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 15/12/2025Victoria cannot solve the homelessness crisis alone. We need other CRD municipalities to step up and build more supportive and affordable housing for those experiencing homelessness. The Province has mandated that local governments need to take care of vulnerable populations! #yyj #victoriabc 0151
Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 15/11/2025The City of Victoria is ahead of our provincial housing targets! Victoria is one of the only municipalities in BC to beat the targets. New housing helps reduce rents, adds to the tax base, and helps create a vibrant city. Others need to step up now. #yyj #bcpoli 4192
Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 07/11/2025The Youth Bus Pass is saved! Thank you to council for voting 9-0 to keep this critical program funded. This will ensure Victoria youth (13-18) have free transit. This is climate action and accessibility policy. This program is technically funded from parking fees on Sundays ($630,000). 180
Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 04/11/2025North Vancouver just approved an incredible new swim dock for their community! Check out these pictures.

Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 27/10/2025HUGE NEWS! Crystal Pool is moving to the old YMCA – this means we will have a pool open while the new Crystal Pool is constructed.

Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Another absolutely amazing Victoria Pride Parade today - this was a massive turnout, an incredible atmosphere, and a great way to celebrate our 2SLGBTQIA+ friends and community members. #yyj #Pride2025 #victoriabc 0211
Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 03/06/2025MOVIES! We have a motion at council this week asking staff to look into preserving downtown movies theatres, incentivizing new theatres, and supporting film. We're at risk of losing all our large downtown theatres in Victoria - bad for culture, vibrancy and the economy! #yyj 260

There is lots of history on this watershed at: rockbaycreek.ca and rockbaycreek.baremetal.com/index.html 020
Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 14/04/2025I'm very proud that Council supported the largest affordable housing project in Victoria's history today- the new Blanshard Courts. This site will have 900 non-market homes, including 175 low-income units, supportive housing, 15% three-bedroom units, and tons of green space and community space. 071
Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 06/04/2025Huge news in Victoria - The Citizens’ Assembly on Amalgamation is recommending that Victoria and Saanich amalgamate. Their final report comes next month. It’s likely this will be on the ballot in 2026 for residents to decide yes/no. I’m very open minded on this. #yyj #bcpoli 15204

Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Thank you to Council for supporting this important non-profit arts/theatre venue in downtown Victoria! This was a 1.5 year journey to get here. I wish we were providing much more support, but am also simply happy we found consensus to support the project. #yyj #victoriabc 0110
Matt Dell @mattdellvictoria.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I'm not giving up on a new theatre downtown! Tomorrow I have a last-effort motion to provide the Other Guise Theatre with a $125,000 grant, if it is matched by private donors. This could lead to $250,000 to help pay down their mortgage and establish a new venue in Victoria. #yyj #victoriabc 290
