No campaign website was found. The address the BC NDP uses for candidate pages, amandaburrows.bcndp.ca, sent every request back to itself and showed no page on 2026-09-30, and the party's team page loads its candidate names through a script, so a direct read shows none. None of the 12 releases on the party's releases page names her. A search found social media accounts under the name Amanda Burrows on X, Instagram, Facebook and Bluesky. The X account could not be found, the Bluesky account is deactivated, and Instagram and Facebook show only a sign-in page. No page ties any of them to this candidacy, so nothing from them is used. Search results also show a person named Amanda Burrows who is executive director of First United, a charity in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. No page read on 2026-09-30 names that person as the BC NDP candidate in Vancouver-Strathcona, so voche.me treats the two as unconnected until a source ties them together, and nothing from that record is used. No published photo tied to this candidacy was found, so the page has no portrait. Her statements, all-candidates meetings in the district, endorsements and campaign finances were not found on this date. Nominations close at 1 p.m. on October 3, 2026, so other candidates in the district may still be added to the Elections BC list.
Evidence reviewed on 2026-09-30: the Elections BC candidate list, the 2024 statement of votes, the legislature's party standings, the BC NDP platform and releases pages, the address the BC NDP uses for candidate pages, CBC News reporting on the district's former MLA, and a search for her name with the district, the party and 2026.
No campaign website, party candidate page, social media post or news report about her candidacy was found on that date. An empty section records what voche.me did not find. It says nothing about what the candidate plans to do.
