Sean Orr got 83,038 votes, the most ever for a City Councillor in the history of Vancouver.
All of Ken Sim's smears and AI agents were powerless in the face of a person with the courage of his convictions willing to fight for the democratic socialist policies we need.

I trust the voters of Vancouver over a paper owned by an American hedge fund thanks.

Mike Klassen gonna spend the next four years longingly looking around the council table for someone to second his motions to give real estate developers more taxpayer money.
Reflecting on his time in office, Vancouver City Councillor Mike Klassen shares his pride in recent accomplishments and talks about what's next.
"Unless I have other councillors working with me at City Hall, it's going to be really hard to accomplish a lot of those positive things."

The choice is: a mayor who spends most of his time jet-setting around the world watching Trump get fake awards and attending bitcoin conferences only to show up during campaign season to scapegoat our most vulnerable and paint the city as a crime ridden dystopia only he can fix
I have been so encouraged by the people I’ve met during this campaign. And it’s clear to me that this election matters, like no other election this city has had.
We’re facing a choice. We can double down on policies that have failed us, or throw up our hands and say nothing needs to change. Or we can roll up our sleeves together, vote YES on the plebiscite, and make the lasting change I think we all know this city is capable of. Only ABC has committed to delivering it.
Imagine if, instead of being known for the Downtown Eastside, we were known as the city that solved it.
Imagine if, instead of being known worldwide for our drug policies, we were known as a world-class leader in treatment and recovery.
I believe in what this city can be.
Being your Mayor has been the greatest privilege of my life. Let’s make the next four years count, Vancouver.
Election Day is this Saturday, October 17. Vote YES on both Public Safety Plebiscite questions, vote for me and your ABC Vancouver team, and bring your friends and family.

Low voter turnout = Ken Sim and ABC destroy the city
High voter turnout = Sean Orr and COPE make the city fun and cool
Remind your friends to vote today.

Im sorry, but where was the “love” when seniors at Myron Manor begged you not to displace them from their home, supports & community they rely on to live? Where will they go to afford a home after you’ve used public land for market rate housing?

Bringing the real change our city needs means making difficult decisions, and not everyone is going to agree with every one of them.
Disagreement is healthy. There isn’t always one right answer, and leadership doesn’t mean getting every decision right. It means making decisions from a place of love for our city, being pragmatic, and having the political will to tackle problems that once seemed impossible to fix.
This election matters. It is an incredible opportunity to transform Vancouver and create the next chapter of our city, or go back to the failed policies of the past.
A YES vote for ABC and a YES vote on the Public Safety Plebiscite will bring hope back to our city.

I have felt jaded about politicians before, but never have I been so disgusted by a municipal party as I am by this one. They lower the bar, they taint our democracy. They need to go.

common thread to teachers protesting alongside students is that they completely validate the conditions the students are protesting, link them to policy and systematic disenfranchisement, and impact on student futures. intergenerational solidarity possible via political clarity

COPE will triple the empty homes tax, close the loopholes investors use to keep properties empty, and tax vacant lots to build the housing we need.
