Vancouver Civic Election Pre-Season...Pointy's Poll Location Problem.

AbsenteeCandidate
Don'tPrivatizeTheStanleyParkRailwayVille


As noted by Mr. S. Quinn (the best darned radio host who will not be sliding into either PTill's or BGood's slot over at CKNW) this afternoon...

The NPA's candidate for Vancouver mayor apparently does not actually live in Vancouver.

Instead, Mr. Quinn reported (and FABula confirmed) that Mr. Lapointe lives in the tax haven that is the UBC lands.

So.

Not only can he not vote for himself but....

Mr. Lapointe cannot claim to feel our pain when it comes to, say, paying for a new bike lane or repairing a swimming pool.

If you get my drift.

Snowmaggedon!
