It’s the most wonderful time.. of the year!
No, I’m not talking about Christmas or Thanksgiving.. I’m talking about Election Day!
November 19, 2011 is Civic Elections Day in British Columbia. All municipalities in BC are required to elect or re-elect their Mayors, City Councillors, Parks Board Members, School Board Trustees, and any other civil referendum questions.
It’s important that EVERYBODY takes 10 minutes, researches their candidates, and votes. Especially in Vancouver.
In my beautiful city, we have two very different directions that our leading mayoral candidates are taking. We need to send them a clear message of what we want.
Vote. Shape your world.

Everyone has their own thoughts on politics and the current state of affairs in Canada. There are a lot of differing view points, and a lot of important issues.
It doesn’t matter what you decide is important to you.. no matter if it’s the environment, the economy, heathcare, or even simply net neutrality.. This is your one chance, as a citizen, to have your voice heard on the national scale.
If you are Canadian, and over 18, get off your ass and vote. Seriously. Now.
The above is a video put together for the US election, but the message is the same. However in Canada, you can register at the polls, as long as you have proper ID.
