There's a new Twitter account called "Vancouver Is Dying" and it's showing all the destruction happening in the city.

The opinionated account retweets and documents some of the negative incidents occurring in Vancouver, from violence to vandalism.

Looking at the account could seriously make someone consider a move.

In one tweet, the account said that it is "trying to become a repository for photos and videos to document what's happening in one place."

"Don't forget to retweet to raise awareness," it added.

The account retweets things like local break-ins, showing that some businesses are having trouble surviving. In addition to the stress the pandemic put on businesses, this is a hard thing to see.

Even some big fast-food chains like Tim Hortons have had to face some crime in the city. The account puts them all on display.

On top of the window-smashing, the account shows a lot of graffiti that's been spotted around the city.

The account points to the government and policy a lot of the time, calling them out hard.

While the name of the account seems harsh at first, seeing the crime is heartbreaking.
