And of course Wendy Pederson had raised her ugly head:

"But not everyone is happy about the Rickshaw’s move to become a permanent fixture in the area. Wendy Pedersen of the Carnegie Community Action Project (CCAP) across the street said the Downtown Eastside is in a very fragile state with low-income residents feeling squeezed by developers and gentrification"

I don't get it with her, she acts like the DTES is something to beholden and preserved....is she blind to the social blight, drug dealing, prostitution, and general embodiment of human misery?
