FRIENDS RUNNING in the PROVINCIAL ELECTION

FRIENDS RUNNING in the PROVINCIAL ELECTION

Today I filed my financial disclosure regarding the recent municipal election. Looking over other candidates filings I really hope that we soon have campaign finance reform. Million dollar campaigns do not serve democracy or benefit the citizens.

Now that my municipal stuff is completed I'm ready to campaign and support my friend as the Green Candidate in a Vancouver area riding. I'm not yet announcing who it is but I asked this individual to personally run in my riding and they agreed. As some of you know I had been lobbied to run but with a few very close friends really not healthy, I wanted to be available to them and spend some quality time together. Besides there are other campaigns ahead.

Another friend today informed me that they are running provincially for the Liberal party against Spencer. I wish the individual well but I'm a Green, however, this candidate's announcement I'm sure will be released very soon and no doubt will stir things up in the West End.
