Homelessness advocates and hotel workers protested outside the FIFA Congress in Vancouver, Canada, criticizing the city's preparations for the upcoming World Cup and warning that vulnerable residents and workers are being ignored. The anti-FIFA coalition claimed that a displacement of homeless people has already begun, with street sweeps, restrictions on tents, and loss of belongings. They also demanded no police sweeps of encampments or World Cup-related escalations and criticized Vancouver's February human-rights action plan related to the tournament as weak and lacking. The protesters were joined by hotel workers outside the Pan Pacific Hotel where FIFA Congress delegates were reportedly staying. The group called for FIFA and event organizers to ensure the World Cup does not worsen homelessness, displacement, or worker hardship.
