01 / Introduction
About Dominic Denofrio
Dominic Denofrio appears on the City of Vancouver's final 2026 candidate list for Park Board, with ballot number 230. The City records the affiliation as OneCity.
The page says Denofrio works in public service and has advised elected officials in the BC NDP government.

Daily Hive described Denofrio as a BC NDP constituency advisor when reporting OneCity's confirmed slate.
The Georgia Straight described Denofrio as a public servant in its report on the same announcement.
OneCity members chose Denofrio in May 2026 as one of three Park Board candidates, alongside former commissioner John Irwin and biologist and labour activist Tyler Petersen. The cap of three came from an agreement between OneCity, COPE and the Green Party to limit the number of candidates each would field.

No interview, speech or public statement by Denofrio was found in any outlet. The employer, the constituency office and the dates of the BC NDP role were not established, and no independent source confirms the role. No record of previous candidacy or public office was found. No campaign event or forum between September 22 and October 17, 2026 could be confirmed. OneCity's own site listed its full platform as coming soon, so no party parks platform document could be read.
