Reporting
Vancouver Is Awesome
Kitsilano residents file court actions over social housing tower and Squamish Nation project
Mike Howell reported the Kitsilano Coalition's petition for a judicial review of council's July 26, 2022 approval of the Arbutus Street social housing tower, and quoted coalition member Cheryl Grant on the alternative design presented at the hearing.
Once again, it looks like ABC Vancouver members won't be attending all-candidates debates
An opinion column reporting that ABC members were not scheduled to attend a council candidates debate organised by Women Transforming Cities, and that the party did not answer questions about it. The column does not name individual Park Board candidates.
Ken Sim's ABC platform promises property tax freeze, end to residential parking permit fees
Kenneth Chan set out ABC's platform. The Park Board part promises new aquatic centres in Sunset and Marpole with a 50-metre lap pool, an end to paid parking at Jericho Beach, Spanish Banks and community centres, double the number of dog parks, permanent repair of the Stanley Park Train, and open access at Kitsilano Pool. These are the party's commitments.
Sources checked September 22, 2026. Official records establish decisions; campaign material establishes stated positions; reporting adds investigation and context. None alone establishes every claim.
The identity match between the candidate and the Cheryl A. Grant named in the Vitality Products news release rests on the company name, the city and the job title, and no source states both facts together. The campaign page claims about the UBC degree, the Berkeley executive education, the Best Buy Canada role, the United Way recognition, the Volunteer Canada and Boys and Girls Clubs board seats, and the Jericho Pier work were not confirmed by any independent source. No 2026 interview, speech or public statement by Grant was found. No campaign event or forum between September 22 and October 17, 2026 could be confirmed.
