Ken Sim

Today is a big day for our city.

This morning I voted with my wife, Teena, and I could not be more grateful to be sharing this experience with her and our family, as well as the amazing ABC Vancouver team and all our volunteers and supporters.

Our door knockers, including the team and me, are out across the city right now, talking with neighbours and reminding people to vote, as we have been doing for many months. Thank you to every one of you for the time, energy and heart you’ve given this campaign.

If you haven’t voted yet, there’s still time. Polls are open until 8 PM. Find your voting place at vancouver.ca/election/2026/…, bring your friends and family, and vote YES on both Public Safety Plebiscite questions.

Thank you to everyone in Vancouver. I am so grateful for this city we call home.

Today is Election Day, and this election matters too much to sit out.

Change has started in Vancouver, but it isn’t finished. We know there’s more to do on public safety.

Here’s what Mayor Ken Sim and ABC are fighting for:

-Police and fire fully funded
-Help for our most vulnerable, with secure medical treatment
-The Public Safety Plebiscite: ban open-air hard drug use and fight for 100 involuntary care beds
-Better roads and sidewalks
-Property tax increases held at 0%
-Record investment in community centres, pools and the services we all rely on

Here’s what Pete Fry is proposing:

-More drug consumption sites
-Shelters that allow drug use in neighbourhoods across the city
-Fewer police
-Higher taxes
-Removing 11% of our roads, which is 220 km, and replacing them with bike lanes

Pete Fry also opposes the plebiscite.

If we want to see the plebiscite become reality, a YES on both questions is where it starts. Only ABC will deliver on your YES vote.

Polls are open now. Find your voting place at: vancouver.ca/election/2026/… and bring your friends and family with you.

Some say Vancouver can’t change. We say it can.

Vote YES on both plebiscite questions today, and vote for Mayor Ken Sim and your ABC Vancouver team.

One of the great things about ABC Vancouver is that it has always been a team for all of Vancouver. From the Eastside to the Westside, north to south, downtown and everywhere in between. From the left to the right of the political spectrum. And as always, the multicultural mosaic that makes our city Vancouver. 

You can see it in the people endorsing Mayor Ken Sim and the ABC team: doctors, politicians of all stripes, community leaders, business leaders, and yes, even a rescue dog.

Diversity isn’t just something we talk about. It’s who we are, and it’s how we build a city that works for everyone.

Swipe through to meet some of the people standing with us.

Election Day is this Saturday, October 17. Vote YES on both Public Safety Plebiscite questions, vote for Mayor Ken Sim and your ABC Vancouver team, and bring your friends and family.

Please see my statement on Premier Eby’s continued neglect of life-saving involuntary care in Vancouver.

The World Cup showed the world, and Vancouver itself, what this city can be at its best.

There was no “us and them.” We were all Canadians, packed together, cheering together. Families with little kids. Young adults having the time of their lives. A whole generation that missed the Olympics and Expo 86 got to see Vancouver like never before.

And when the tournament ended, as a city, we didn’t let that energy fade. We kept the pedestrian zone open and reclaimed that street. There were doubters, and some fought it. But we built on the momentum, and showed a whole generation that Vancouver can be welcoming for everyone.

That’s the Vancouver we can have every day: lively, safe, welcoming, and proud. Mayor Ken Sim and ABC Vancouver are fighting for that Vancouver, right alongside you.

Election Day is tomorrow, Saturday, October 17. Vote YES on both Public Safety Plebiscite questions, vote for Mayor Ken Sim and your ABC Vancouver team, and bring your friends and family. Let’s keep this moment going.
