Honoured to lay wreaths at Memorial South Park and Chinatown today.

Heartwarming to see hundreds of veterans, first responders, cadets, community leaders, Scouts and Girl Guides and their family members at Memorial South’s centennial and Chinatown’s Cenotaph.

Grateful to all who keep remembrance alive and honour those who served.

Officially sworn in for my second term on Vancouver City Council!

A memorable ceremony was held last week, complete with lion dancers and some good luck lettuce flying our way. Only in Vancouver! 🦁🥬

I’m grateful to voters for the opportunity to serve another four years. It’s a responsibility I take seriously, and one I never take for granted.

Lots of work ahead, and I’m looking forward to getting on with it! #vanpoli

Thousands of handmade poppies and feathers have transformed the front lawn of Vancouver City Hall into a beautiful tribute to remembrance, sacrifice and peace.

Now in its 10th year, this remarkable display was created and installed by Vancouver School Board students and teachers, with orange feathers honouring Indigenous veterans.

I was delighted to meet some of the students and educators behind this incredible effort. Thank you for your hard work and thoughtful tribute!

Stop by City Hall and see it for yourself. Lest we forget. 🌺

A terrible tragedy. My heartfelt condolences to the victim’s family and loved ones.

The growing use of e-scooters raises serious public safety questions that cities and the Province must confront. We need clearer rules, better enforcement and greater awareness of the risks before more lives are lost.

BREAKING - (1/3) Chief of staff to Premier-elect Lorne Doerkson will be Dimitri Pantazapolous. Most recently he was deputy campaign dir. for the BC Conservative campaign. He is one of Canada’s top political strategists and pollsters. #bcpoli #cdnpoli
