I wish I could vote for Jennifer Reddy one more time, but instead I will wish her a restful break and instead vote for others on the @onecityvan.bsky.social slate who I trust will equally put kids at the heart of all decisions with Jen’s experience in the background still supporting them. 10/X

Its also why the first two votes on my ballot will go to Sherry Breashers (#321) of One City and Suzie Mah of COPE as I’ve seen both of these strong education advocates fight for kids in VSB over the past few years. 9/X
While these scores alone are concerning, what is worse is the way that VSB staff in leadership positions report these conclusions out at Districts Board meetings, where results are sanitized into simplistic Power Points presented to Stakeholders with their own bad math interpretations: 6/X
Thank you @e-van-mama.bsky.social for your careful insights & endorsement. We need to pay attention to this data & do everything possible to turn around literacy, numeracy and graduation rates for all marginalized learners at the VSB. Vote OneCity Vancouver! @onecityvan.bsky.social
It's official! Our 13 Candidates across City Council, School Board, and Park Board have submitted their papers to be on your ballot on October 17! We've got the team with the plan to build a more affordable, safe, and vibrant city for everyone.
Very fun evening with Charlie Demers and Ivan Decker and our @onecityvan.bsky.social community tonight.
I'm very proud of the Labour Manifesto released by @onecityvan.bsky.social today.
We are committed to supporting every worker and creating good job opportunities, beginning with strong training programs for our youth, and procurement policies that serve Vancouverites.
This is how a mayoral candidate and political party gets my vote: telling me clearly, proudly and joyfully what side they’re on, who they listen to, and how they think about solving problems. Happy Labour Day, Vancouver! #vanpoli
Part of OneCity’s frustration is that every day they’re putting out a multi-platform policy announcement like this while Pete Fry announces nothing and every day part of the conversation is “you’re at 5% in the polls, please consider dropping out”
Proud to be a public sector union member, and even prouder to support @onecityvan.bsky.social and @wazaroff.bsky.social’s policies to strengthen labour in our city!
My mom worked as a nurse here in Vancouver for 31 years & while it wasn’t always easy, she was able to raise my sister & me on her own and provide us a good life.
Her union made that possible.

Right now, AI regulation is the Wild West. Someone can walk into a community centre, a change room, or a public pool wearing a covert recording device that's quietly recording everything around them, and current rules don’t do enough. 1/2
Waiting for someone to actually *do something* about Big Tech?
You should be able to trust that you're not being recorded at the gym, pool, or park.
William Azaroff and OneCity have a plan for that.

As a parent, I know going out as a family to visit local attractions is often not cheap. That's why @onecityvan.bsky.social has announced our Library Card+ proposal, which will give families the opportunity to pre-load their library cards with discounted passes to a range of places across the city.
I deeply appreciate the support of climate activist, author, and friend @sethdklein.bsky.social
I’ve long admired his activism and enjoyed working together to advocate to keep fossil fuels out of buildings in Vancouver.

Very pleased to endorse you William. Let's do this! 👇
Update: a delightful gentleman walked in off the street and donated $67 in cash! Let’s goooo 📍2607 Main Street
This is the plan I’ve been waiting to see. This is what we need to keep art and culture thriving in Vancouver, and I say this both as the managing director of a 45-year old established theatre company and venue, and as a burlesque performer on the independent cabaret scene
