AHA MEDIA filmed at the At Home/Chez Soi Vancouver  Bosman Hotel Community Welcome Celebration on Monday August 23, 2010.  It was a great celebration for all to see as AHA MEDIA remembers when we attended the Development Permit Board and Advisory Panel meeting at Vancouver City Hall that considered PHS to change Bosman Hotel into supportive housing back in October 2009.
