Vancouver voters go to the by-election polls on April 5, the eve of the city’s 139th birthday.
A baker’s dozen candidates are vying to fill two vacant seats on city council.
One of them is making a comeback: Colleen Hardwick, who was elected to city council on the NPA ticket from 2018 to 2022. In 2022, she finished third in the mayoral election as leader of the TEAM for a Livable Vancouver party.
Hardwick and her TEAM running mate, Theodore Abbott, hope voters will choose them to form a bloc to oppose Mayor Ken Sim’s majority ABC Vancouver ahead of the October 2026 civic election.
Colleen Hardwick is Bob Mackin’s guest on this special midweek edition of thePodcast.
