About Amauri Caliman

Amauri Caliman is running for Vancouver mayor with no party listed in the official candidate record. His ballot number is 55. This is his first run for public office, as far as voche.me could find; no earlier candidacy appears in City election records.

Vancity Lookout described him in September 2026 as an ICBC employee and entrepreneur who sees running outside a party as an advantage. His candidate-submitted VoteMate biography describes entrepreneurship and public-service experience. voche.me has not confirmed his employer, his businesses or his education with any independent record.

His campaign centres on housing supply, which he calls “more attainable homes”, modernized zoning, a public dashboard that tracks housing progress, and safety on public transit, according to CBC News and his VoteMate submission. His full platform is summarized in the priorities section below.

Check the evidence

Sources checked September 22, 2026. Official records establish decisions; campaign material establishes stated positions; reporting adds investigation and context. None alone establishes every claim.

Official record 4 sources
Campaign 1 sources
Reporting 3 sources
Event organizer 2 sources

Specific employment dates, costed commitments, independently reviewed interviews, dated campaign appearances, nomination names, campaign finances and photo reuse rights remain open. The accessible news preview is not a substitute for the full interview.

Finances, endorsements and voting record

Campaign spending returns, donors, endorsements and a complete vote-by-vote record have not yet been verified for this profile. These gaps do not mean that no records exist. A nominator is not automatically an endorser.

Candidate responses and corrections

This page was prepared by Voche.me from public sources. The candidate has not approved its contents or supplied answers to the questions below. Candidate submissions will be labelled separately from independent reporting.

Nomination papers & nominators

The nomination papers are the form Amauri Caliman filed with the City to get on the ballot. Nominators are the electors who signed it. A signature says the signer supported putting this person on the ballot; it does not establish a current endorsement, a donation or agreement with any policy.
