Last night I was acclaimed as part of the Vision Vancouver Executive (see story here). There was great turn out for the AGM, which is good news in preparation for the upcoming municipal elections here in Vancouver.
Needless to say I’m excited to be part of the Vision Team. After a rejected op-ed and traveling to 8 cities in 12 days I’m exhausted and a little beat up. The good news and cheer from the AGM was very much welcome. Sadly, it was off to the airport for Edmonton right afterwards so not even a chance for a beer with everyone to celebrate.
I apologize for the thin postings last week – come Wednesday and a 12 hour nap, I’ll be back on top of things.

Hi Dave,
My brother, Joel, pointed me to your blog.
Would you be interested in writing some for the Vancouver Observer? I would love to have something that tells a bit more about what happened last night at the Vision Vancouver AGM, for instance, and am actively seeking regularly political writers. We’re all volunteer at this point, but I do get around 2,000 front page hits a month and am constantly publicizing the site in a variety of ways and have a growing subscriber base of savvy people.

Congrats on the new position. I actually dropped by, it was interesting to watch (and even more interesting when I left – the lights were all out on Hastings!). I’m sure will get even more interesting as the days and months go by :)

My friend is on the executive of COPE. Have you had talks with their executive about possible election strategies? This city needs more Sam Sullivan like it needs…I don’t know, but we need change.
