In Vancouver there's this mantra that the high cost of living/real estate is due to what a world class city Vancouver is. As a result there's no way to make it actually affordable. That line of thinking also states methods like re-zoning, increased transit infrastructure, etc are a waste of time and only disrupt the good aspects of the city. It's basically the NIMBY mantra.
The tweet is pointing out the falsehoods with that, and that Vancouver is actually just filling with people who can't afford to survive there.
