I departed from my west coast small Canadian beach town, outside of Vancouver, BC, in 2017 and returned in the mid 2020s to discover something shocking! Where is my home? From record "immigration" levels and rapid urban "development" with towers and apartment blocks replacing family homes with yards to a brutal rental and job market and a housing crisis with our middle class suburban homes priced in the millions of dollars... ...from an increase in homelessness and crime to a loss of local Canadian customs and traditions... ...from social and psychological degradation and expressions of mental illness and isolation to a displacement of the Canadian people and a loss of our cohesion and our community... ...this is what it looks like when those in power choose globalisation over nationalism, when they aid and abet the exploitation of our home. My hometown, White Rock/South Surrey, BC, is dear to many of us and this destruction has not been our choice. This on-the-ground documentary film acknowledges this shocking and unjust transformation. It records this change and loss from the real local hometown perspective. It is our voice. What Happened to My Hometown? Canada's Decline 2025
