[edit] Before The Tom's Changes....Plus

The City of Vancouver, along with the rest of British Columbia, held its triennial municipal elections on November 19, 2005. Canadian citizens who were over 18 years of age at the time of the vote, and had been a resident of Vancouver for the past 30 days and a resident of B.C. for the past six months, were able to vote for candidates in four races that were presented on one ballot. In addition, Canadian citizen non-resident property owners were eligible to vote.

The ballot elects one mayor, 10 Councillors, 9 School Board Trustees and 7 Park Board Commissioners. Each elector may vote for as many candidates as there are open seats (e.g., an elector may vote for 10 or fewer Councillors).

[edit] Oh why Yee and not He?

Both myself and Mike Hansen have been at it longer than Yee and no info? Yet on Yee? Pat yourselves on the back, a fellow who ran Independently in Parks board was as well, Patrick Briton under his Party ran for Mayor in 2002; I ran in 3 Mayorals, ran as a write-in advocate several times, Reform BC/Canada advocate and Campaign Manager and Vancouver Burrard association Candidacy founder (convinced her to run). I am a Libertarian Party of Canada (newly) Advocate and Constituency Defacto/Acting Official Agent or Contact or whatever, it's being built up in Vancouver East. Mike Hansen (one of two in BC) has been on the ballot(s) many times. As has M(r)s. Michelle Jasmine Chang mostly n prov and federal as an Independent. Ben West is relitively new in the front lines, but even he is a major advocate with the WLP and a recent Federal Candidate with the Green Party. That's all for now, you need to police your selves (Admn) more than contributors. Does the founder do anything regarding admin policing or is it anarchy in his baby?

[edit] Ben West, Myself and many others here.

Now I know I, despite what I know, it not exactly being scholarpedia or anything, would be blasted and condemned and undone for adding anything, however I am not nothing, and I risk my own ass and health even suggesting something be mentioned, but it is still less about me, it's more about efforts I have done some political scienting Ben West has done wirming up the ladder becomming a major Green Party Player and eventually an NDPer. Even I have swallowed pride and am federally no Independent, although still Philosphical about it and a LPC voting member (Libertarian Party of Canada) and pusher. Internally controvercial appearently regarding how I use my free speech.

PR Risk,

[edit] PS

Do some background work, 1996 is the best election in Mayoral Candidate Numbers, look it up. Again another one where I am a Candidate as is 2002 as for 1999 well I was medically out of it. Any fact checkers? My original attention was to avoid lies against me and editorialization, oh and I read Encyclopedias this is no Encyclopedia, not even in succesful parody or styling. -- G-Spot 14:59, 22 January 2007 (UTC) User:Gzlfb
