Event Description

Vancouver City Council Candidates’ Debate 

In anticipation of the November 19 municipal election, the Residents Association Mount Pleasant (RAMP) will be hosting a candidates’ debate on citywide planning issues, and community groups from around Vancouver will be attending to ask their questions and communicate their issues to all.  Village Vancouver will have a central role to play in this debate on building community.

Representatives from all elected parties--Vision Vancouver, the Non Partisan Association, the Coalition of Progressive Electors and the Green Party--have confirmed their attendance.

Residents from neighbourhoods across Vancouver are invited to attend. Debate questions will be selected in advance from online solicitations at www.rampvancouver.com, and there will be opportunity for additional questions from the floor.

A coffee hour will follow the debate to allow attendees to speak directly with the candidates.

BACKGROUND

Campaign season has started and neighbourhoods across Vancouver want to hear from their potential elected representatives before the election. Grace Mackenzie of RAMP said, “This debate will give residents many opportunities to ask the questions they want answers to. People are asking, ‘What’s their plan for our neighbourhood?’ ” 

The Residents Association Mount Pleasant (RAMP) is a non-profit coalition of volunteers who recognize the unique character of the community and strive to maintain this special neighbourhood. We strive to connect residents with issues that affect them at the most local level.

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
