Had I known the outcome of last night's municipal elections I would not have danced as I did at the Rio's East Van Opry. Was shocked to wake up and see that the present version of the NPA party -- the right-of-centre ABC -- had its slate elected -- from less than 40% of Vancouver's eligible voters.
The Ken Sim-led ABC is the first Vancouver municipal party in recent memory to be endorsed by both Vancouver Police and Fire unions. No housing plan to speak of (apart from making development applications "easier" to obtain), only the usual fear campaign that, Sim claims, will be remediated by the hiring of 100 more cops and 100 more nurses.
