Wishing you joy and peace this holiday season

Beautiful evening at the Shipyards Christmas Market, in the most livable city in Canada 😉

Another great Light Up Ride! Thanks to everyone who attended and helped out!

I was pleased to attend the announcement on the BC Hydro call for power. 9 wind projects, 8 with majority First Nations equity partnership, will receive 30 year contracts for enough electricity to power 500,000 homes. See the full Pembina Institute react below ⬇️

City of North Van council tmrw evening. The Eras tour will be over, but we'll discuss housing needs and urban forests!

On Dec 6th each year we march for those who can't and be a voice for those who had theirs taken.

Today is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, but we must all commit to acting to end gender-based violence everyday.

The holiday season kicked off this weekend at the Shipyards. Showing off why it's an award winning public space!

Housing Central remains the best conference on housing, hands down. In part because of the amazing keynote speakers that challenge us to think and act differently. Like Connie Walker.

City of North Van council is in session tomorrow at 6 pm. You can join the meeting online or in-person and public input period is always open! #northvan

Great to hear Mayor Sohi at the Globe Forum speak about the importance of cities in building a resilient communities and future. The core responsibility of local governments, land use planning, has a larger impact that folks often realize. "Zoning can be used to exclude people, or include people".
