I didn’t realize he was a writer. They’ll be some good things to come from him, I’m sure.

He was a former executive for Monday Magazine.   Back when it was something.  His move to OP at the time was surprising.

Oh, come on.   Don Evans (OP CEO) hired him.  Then Evans who used to drive his sports car to the homeless sites, replapsed bad and ****ed himself up on drugs again in 2017. 

 

Has not recovered now.  

 

These non-profts are a scam.

 

We taxpayers pay for it.

 

 

 

At 26, he became the single father of a three-year-old girl after a relationship ended. In 1990, he moved to Vancouver — “for love” — and became a successful stockbroker with a waterfront home, a couple of Jaguars and a powerboat.

Evans loved the fast pace and the intensity of his work. But cocaine was part of the lifestyle, and addiction almost destroyed him.

“It took everything from me — except my daughter.”

The government also pays guys like the convicted drug trafficker of SOLID* to head an organization and guys like serial assualt convict Guy Fellicia to have a government job.

 

It's a racket.
