Reporting
Daily Hive
Ken Sim's ABC party names four new Vancouver City Council candidates
The article lists ABC Vancouver's school board slate for 2026 and names Kroeker among the five new trustee candidates. It carries no separate profile of Kroeker.
Sources checked September 22, 2026. Official records establish decisions; campaign material establishes stated positions; reporting adds investigation and context. None alone establishes every claim.
Nothing was found about Kroeker beyond the ABC Vancouver candidate page and the two Daily Hive candidate-list articles. No interview, speech, campaign event, past candidacy or independent profile was found. The party page names no employer for the technology work and no charity for the volunteer work, so neither claim could be checked. ABC Vancouver has not published a separate school board platform, so every policy item above is the party's council platform.
