If Liberals hadn’t united against the Trump threat, this country would’ve been red, white, and very blue.

Canada didn’t vote Liberal. It voted “not Trump.” Barely.

This wasn’t a love letter to Liberals.

It was a panicked “oh hell no” to Trump’s annexation vibes.

So let’s not pop champagne.

Let’s keep the receipts.

Vancouver election office says record high voter turnout reason for long lineups for byelection Polls are open for the Vancouver byelection from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. at 25 locations across the city.

It doesn’t matter if it was intentional or not, under resourced polling locations yesterday will suppress turnout in the future.

Pathetic showing from the Vancouver elections office. #bcpoli #vanpoli #vancouvervotes

40% increase in voter turnout from the 2017 by-election.

I love when my people get politicized! It was a long time coming to shake us up from this civilian slumber.

Lets make our voices heard! Hopefully it's only the beginning #proud #vanpoli #YVRPolitics #yvr #VancouverVotes #vanelxn25

At Kerrisdale today, they were sending those of us with mobility aids to an alternate entrance with multiple stairs (!!!)

My friend with invisible chronic health challenges wasn't offered the opportunity to use the priority access line.

With today’s #Vancouver by-election, figuring there would be big lineups at the chic polling stations on Commercial Drive & Coal Harbour (where drinks an hors d'oeuvres were served)—I voted at the Carnegie Centre today. About a 20 minute lineup that I gather has evaporated.

Stood in line for over an hour with hundreds of my neighbours to cast my ballot in a civic by-election. So proud of my fellow Vancouverites for thoroughly understanding the assignment. Huge turnouts across the city today. Democracy is having her moment & I truly love that for her.❤️🇨🇦 #VancouverVotes

Update: Took ~90 minutes to vote with the line the same length as when I first got in line.

90 minutes in line. VOTED! Reminder if you’re still in line at 8pm you still get to cast your ballot. Stay in line.

Also sorry no bouncy castle today, West End kids 😔

Doing my civic duty & voting in today’s municipal by-election replacing two #Vancouver councillors who have moved on… quite the line at the Coal Harbour community centre & hearing the same of West End community centre. The line at least 300metres long!

Vancouver byelection candidates hit concerts, bars, and mosques to get out the vote We follow around some byelection hopefuls to get a sense of how they're campaigning for votes.

Hey Ken Sim, this is what real swagger looks like.

On Saturday we're putting @seanorr.bsky.social on Council.

@cityofvancouver.bsky.social still on X, apparently. 😤 Anyhow, thanks to the City staff who are working hard today. Next time don't use first day voters as guinea pigs when you're ill prepared. #Vancouvervotes
