If we handed out government funded herion and cocaine we would stop property crime and child prostitution.It's time we abandon our delicate sensibity's and genuinely CARE.
just to let you guys all know i know stephane personally and he is doing sooo much better he is off the drugs and has found god and is part of a wonderful church and surrounded by many people who love him he is a great example of a person who can claw there way out alive and fix their lives love ya stephane my brother :)
1:26 holy crap it's Sean White the snowboarder from the X-games. Now I know why he lands all those crazy jumps he is on some good ones.
All jokes aside this is sad. Hopefully people who are able to come to the call and help provide a little foundation for people to build a respectable life again.
Stephane is very typical of many of the long term residents of the DTE, he is a good guy who doesn't harm people and is able to comprehend that there is a better way to live, but, addiction has it's evil claws deeply rooted in Staphanes soul. I hope he keeps trying, when I first met Stephane he had a car and a nice girlfriend. He lived in Surrey, as of late I have seen him living full time in the war zone. God bless him and keep him safe.
This is good. I like anything that shows homeless drug addicts as human.People walk by them, step over them like they're garbage but that "garbage" has feeling.
this place dtes is a frickin hell hole the only way out is your choice you need to hit the bottom before you make it to the top 90% dont make it out off this shathole
this guy steve only got 1 way out thats to walk the fuck out good luck brother
Hey, i visited Vancouver, BC bout a month back, had relatives staying there, and when i was there, my cousins kept reminding me not to walk in Hastings area, which is in Chinatown, me being me, i decided to venture, so i took a bus from Downtown to pass thru Hastings, i saw with my own eyes, the scarred scence and I can honestly say that they are harmless we just got to respect them and share with them our love.
I personally know Stephane, he's struggles alot with his addiction as I have in the past, thank god I over came and am in recovery. Seeing this video and Stephane brought up alot of memories and... I can only hope he outlives his addiction!! Is it possible to do a follow up video?? it would be nice to know he's atleast still alive and well if you don't find him...just maybe that means, he finally got a bed...
You know, its a real sad thing to see our Human beings losing their lives to the needle and "stuff" i do hope that there will be some activist out there there will heal our brothers and sisters who are trapped in this. Its a good video, but its really sad..
I used to live there. couldn't handle it anymore. lots of junkies, miles of rubbish sidewalks, boarded up business along 400 block Hastings, also South Granville boarded up, spraypaint graffiti, crystal meth, and
hope you make more videos. this is a really good video but a sad one as well. its ashame that no one is stepping up. east side Vancouver is a train wreck.

These sad people should be rounded up by the police and sent to cleanup camps, weather they like it or not. Zero tolerance.

@m6426 True as far as sharing love...harmless is one thing you are way off on!
