I look forward to the day when commentary on the number/percentage of women and of various ethnic groups will no longer be newsworthy.

We should be voting for the people who, in our judgement, are most likely to best represent our interests. Period.

To: David Amos <motomaniac333@gmail.com>

Liberal Party of Canada

-----------------------------

We're almost there, friend.

It's been three years since our 2015 campaign, and we're now less than
one year away from Election 2019. As we begin looking forward to the
next 12 months, I often think back to where this all began: with you.

It began with our goal of delivering real change, and focusing on the
Canadians who built this country: the middle class. And none of our
important progress would be possible without your dedication and
support.

Thanks to the new (and recently increased) Canada Child Benefit, 9/10
Canadian families are now receiving more money to put nutritious meals
on the table, pay for school supplies, and help kids to participate in
after school activities.

We've lowered taxes for nine million middle class Canadians, got a
good deal for Canadian workers and families with the new
US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), and strengthened the Canada
Pension Plan so seniors can count on a secure and dignified retirement
after a lifetime of hard work.

We're taking real action to fight climate change and protect our
environment while growing our economy, even as Andrew Scheer's
Conservatives have still failed to present any such plan. And with
your support, we're leading a government that is investing in Canadian
communities - by building new affordable housing with Canada's
first-ever National Housing Strategy, and better roads, transit, and
bridges to help Canadians get to where they're going quickly and
safely.

And, just this week, we kept another important promise by moving
forward with our plan to legalize and strictly regulate cannabis,
which helps keep our kids and communities safe - and takes profits
away from criminals.

These are just a few of the steps forward that you've made possible.
But there's much more work ahead of us and we can't slow down for a
moment. That's why I'm counting on you, friend.

With less than one year until the 2019 election, we need to be more
ready than ever to help elect our Liberal team across Canada - with
the same hope and hard work that has always powered our progress.

You can help by chipping in what you can before midnight tomorrow.
Your gift will go towards our 2019 Re-Election Fund, and make a real
difference as we prepare together for the campaign. What do you say?

Chip in now  ➜

It all starts with you.

Obviously the last email worked and I am now in receipt of a digital
copy of what the Crown purportedly filed on August 31st. I have yet to
see Hard Copy of anything but I will respond in writing ASAP and
DEMAND an oral argument in front of 3 judges who do not have a
conflict of interest with me.. This is clearly an attempt of Jensen
and his cohorts within the Registry Office to try to stop me from
filing more lawsuits.


Furthermore why does the link to the Federal Court's records no longer
function so that I can check the history of the docket for myself?

Kennedy Stewart elected mayor of Vancouver

After tight race with NPA's Ken Sim, independent candidate set to lead mixed council


Kennedy Stewart celebrates after being elected mayor of Vancouver on Oct. 20. It's the first time the city has elected an independent candidate in more than 30 years. (Tina Lovgreen/CBC)


For the first time in more than three decades, Vancouver has elected an independent mayor, choosing Kennedy Stewart from a crowded field of contenders.

Stewart ran on a centre-left platform, promising that housing affordability would be his first priority. He's pledged to emphasize non-profit housing solutions for low- and medium-income residents, and to form an emergency task force to deal with the city's opioid crisis.
The former NDP MP for Burnaby South was the frontrunner heading into Saturday's vote, but he was in for a tough fight against the Ken Sim of the Non-Partisan Association (NPA) for most of the night. Vancouver, like Montreal and some other Canadian cities, has political parties at the municipal level.

It took until the final votes from all 133 polling places were counted before Stewart could be safely declared the winner, with 49,812 votes to Sim's 48,828. Independent Shauna Sylvester wasn't far behind, with 35,537.

It was a long night for everyone involved in this year's election.

The polls officially closed at 8 p.m., but long lines at a handful of polling places meant the city held off counting votes until close to 9:30 p.m.

It would take more than three more hours before Stewart was declared the winner.




.@KennedyStewart makes his victory walk up the podium. His win marks Vancouver's first Independent mayor in more than three decades. @cbcnewsbc

Women dominate council


The last time Vancouver had an independent mayor was from 1980 to 1986, when Mike Harcourt was in power.

Stewart will lead a mixed council, with no one party holding a clear majority of votes. Five NPA councillors, three Greens and one person each from COPE and OneCity were voted in Saturday night.
Returning councillor Adriane Carr easily captured the highest vote total of the night, edging out fellow Green Pete Fry.

Sim says “we had a great night” and says we elected five women councillors . He then thanks his parents for their sacrifices.


Vision Vancouver nearly wiped out


The results mean that after 10 years of dominating city politics, Vision Vancouver, which did not field a mayoral candidate, has been locked out of the council chambers entirely. Former mayor Gregor Robertson, who decided not to run again, was on the Vision Vancouver slate.

 In fact, the once-powerful party has been reduced to just one school trustee, Allan Wong, and he barely squeaked in, winning the final of nine positions by fewer than 400 votes.

The next school board will include:
  • Janet Fraser (Green)
  • Estrellita Gonzalez (Green)
  • Lois Chan-Pedley (Green)
  • Oliver Hanson (NPA)
  • Fraser Ballantyne (NPA)
  • Carmen Cho (NPA)
  • Jennifer Reddy (OneCity)
  • Barb Parrott (COPE)
  • Allan Wong (Vision Vancouver)

The Green Party had a strong showing across all three of Vancouver's elected bodies, winning three seats on each of the park board, school board and council.

Vancouver's new park board will include:
  • Stuart MacKinnon (Green)
  • Dave Demers (Green)
  • Camil Dumont (Green)
  • John Coupar (NPA)
  • Tricia Barker (NPA)
  • Gwen Giesbrecht (COPE)
  • John Irwin (COPE)
