All I Can Say Is I Can Not Rule Out Running For Mayor of Vancouver again, any announcements will not be before the legal cut off of a year before the 2026 November Election. #Buday4Vancouver #Buday4Liberty #VanPoli #VanElxn

Geller:
"Allowing 15- to 20-storey [supportive housing] buildings [with 150-plus units] along so many local neighbourhood streets throughout the city is most inappropriate. Indeed, it is bordering on the absurd from an urban design and planning perspective.”

“This seems to me to often be the case: That when residents fight back and win on something, that the result is to remove the influence of residents even more." (ref. how new social-housing highrise proposals would be subject to scant citizen input) #Vancouver #VanElxn

Vancouver voters are facing up to 3+ hour waits in snaking lines for today's City Council by-election.
Amid a 50% cut in the number of by-election polling stations, from 50 sites in 2017 to 25 today.
A higher turnout is also apparent. #vanpoli #vanelxn

Any candidate who replies to this thread with a clear and concise plan to solve the problem of multiple-hour queues at polling stations before I get to the front will get my second vote. #vanelxn
Update: Took ~90 minutes to vote with the line the same length as when I first got in line.

Also not for nothing, but no party's canvassers has come by our place in champlain heights. Mind you the only people who did last time was vision and onecity. #vanpoli #vanelxn
As loath am I to agree with ABC Vancouver on this point- the lack of early voting options that aren't at City Hall is atrocious.
Right now, it's a hour by transit at least to get there from where I am in south vancouver one way.
This is voter suppression.
#vanpoli #vanelxn
I am so excited to have two excellent progressive candidates who will fight every day for a safer, more livable Vancouver for all of us.
Election day is April 5th municipally and I'll get back to you about the other election. 🙃

In other news, more than 55% of eligible vancouverites don't give a shit about municipal politics #vanelxn #vanpoli #sad
Well, looks like Toronto has still beaten us in turnout. Vancouver we can do better #vanpoli #vanelxn2014 #vanelxn
I want to thank someone that I can call a friend for a great campaign, @gregorylbaker43. Well done @NPAVancouver #vanelxn

Ok, shutting down #vanelxn chatter for tonight & pondering lessons, etc. Back to our previously scheduled programming.
Two hopefuls I've followed most closely - Carr, w/ Greens, & Klassen, w/ NPA, both lag just beyond a win threshold. #vanelxn
Sounds as though they're manually colouring an election map in the CBC radio studio in #vanelxn coverage. Cute.
The lousy thing about a list system for candidates must be the prospect of losing to friends in your own party. #vanelxn
It's officially a confused mess in #vanelxn Council. Seems like VV holds Council at COPE's expense while NPA picks up slack, but otherwise ?
Ok, CBC radio's #vanelxn coverage has taken a turn for the surreal. Temporary, I hope.
Holy $%&& !!! - Anton pulls a sliver ahead in last no.'s. Still early, but I didn't expect to see that at all. #vanelxn
Robertson's ratio of votes v. Anton running just over 3:2 so far. #vanelxn
