Vancouver RundownVancouver Rundown Monday April 7, 2025Two social advocates, running for left-of-centre civic parties, have been elected to Vancouver City Council in a byelection with near record turnout. COPE’s Sean Orr and Lucy Maloney with OneCity defeated all other candidates by at least a two-to-one margin. Former councillor Colleen Hardwick, the only candidate with elected experience, came in third. The two candidates running for Mayor Ken Sim’s ABC were far behind. A number of Vancouverites have expressed outrage over the hours-long voting lines as the City decided to cheap-out on polling stations and election day staff.

On Site ReportA Rising Tide Lifts All Boats w/ Colleen HardwickAs we continue to map the city of Vancouver, the neighbourhood of False Creek South comes into view. Heralded for its progressive approach to urban design, False Creek South demonstrates the core principles of the city livable movement. In the early 1970’s The Electors Action Movement (TEAM) championed a turn towards human-scale urbanism that prioritized aesthetics and livability. But fifty years later Vancouver has transitioned from being a beacon of livability to a city that commentators have recently referred to as “impossibly unaffordable”. In the midst of Vancouver’s embrace of bad urbanism, the False Creek South neighbourhood has come und...

With 58 candidates for Vancouver City Council and 10 registered parties in the running, how can we make sense of it all?Among the many chewy topics on the table, Gord and Peter consider: can anyone entice the centre Left to ride to a City Hall majority—and do these labels still have any meaning? Are the developers still putting up the campaign bucks and calling the shots? Are the old wh...
