Lawyer David Eby lives in Vancouver and works full time for the legal advocacy group the Pivot Legal Society on Pivot's Housing and Policing Campaigns. The author of The Arrest Handbook: A Guide to Your Rights, and co-lead author of Pivot's report Cracks in the Foundation: Solving the Low-Income Housing Crisis in Canada's Poorest Neighbourhood, David's advocacy work with Pivot has contributed to: the biggest provincial social housing investment in Vancouver in over 10 years; 91 recommendations from a provincial auditor for reform of the complaints process under the Police Act in British Columbia; tightening of bylaws preventing the conversion of low-income rental housing to condominiums; and the resurrection of a long unused City of Vancouver power to repair rental buildings that are neglected and bill those repairs to the building's owners.
