I love seeing these pop up around town!

The out of school care crisis is going from bad to worse with parents waiting up to five years for a spot. It doesn’t have to be this way! I’m looking forward to presenting a motion supporting more OOSC across the city. www.onecityvancouver.ca/more_out_of_...

Today, Mayor Ken Sim, on behalf of Vancouverites, leveraged investments in Ontario as a reason to complain that the Province and the Federal Government are failing to invest in Vancouver. I have some things to say about this. 1/12 #VanPoli #CANPoli🇨🇦 #YVR

We need to go taller, denser, and faster. That's why we're taking bold steps to meet the scale of our housing crisis by combining and accelerating the next phases of Seattle’s Comprehensive Plan.

The impact of Stephen Lewis’ lifelong commitment to social justice and human rights is extraordinary. His legacy will live on with everyone he knew and all that were inspired by him. Beautiful piece by @sethdklein.bsky.social www.nationalobserver.com/2026/03/31/o...

Tonight at 9pm Pacific on @sportsnet650.bsky.social - the Chat Room at Tyrant Studios returns with Nathan Rourke of the @bclions.com, @onecityvan.bsky.social’s @wazaroff.bsky.social, Erin Cebula, ret Inspector Mike Porteous with his new book and much more. Listen online at www.sportsnet.ca/650/

Congratulations @avilewis.ca on becoming the leader of Canada’s @ndp.ca @onecityvan.bsky.social is committed to championing a Pro-Growth, Pro-Housing, Pro-Worker practical progressivism for Vancouverites of all stripes. We look forward to conversations about how we can make that possible. 1/2

It’s good to see real movement on the stalled "Bring Back Britannia" project. Pro-growth means getting things built, and I want to see shovels in the ground. But wait, what is the actual benefit for the neighbourhood? Will they share this facility with the public?

Good. It is essential Ken Sim is held accountable for spreading harmful misinformation. Sean and our city deserve better.

Speaking of strong women under the @onecityvan.bsky.social banner, welcome to the party, @fabulavancouver.bsky.social and good luck in the nomination!

It is an incredible honour to work with the strong women of OneCity Vancouver as we celebrate International Women’s Day.

What does "Pro-Growth, Pro-Housing, Pro-Worker Practical Progressivism" actually mean? When William says “pro-growth, pro-housing, pro-worker,” he’s not trying to win a slogan contest. He’s describing the kind of Vancouver we need to build again.

This isn’t just a mistake an apology to @seanorr.bsky.social can fix. This is opens up the city to huge liability. What other decisions has Ken Sim made that we now need to question the source and reliability of them?

I'm angry and sad to learn about this attack on a synagogue on Purim, of all days. People should be able to practice their faith in peace and to come together to celebrate their history without acts of anti-Semitism and hatred. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

If we don’t build housing to solve homelessness, we don’t really want to solve homelessness. #UrbanTruth

*deep sigh* Another project to add to the list. The city can work to make events and celebrations across the city possible. Time for some new solutions.

Early flowers at Dude Chilling Park (and some social housing built by @wazaroff.bsky.social )

It was a bit weird to see false stories circulating about me just a few days after winning the OneCity nomination. Glad to see @theijf.org and @zakvescera.bsky.social pick this up. The story gets even weirder the deeper you go.

I’ve talked with hundreds of Vancouverites over the last few months, and folks feel like the city is running on fumes. That our best days are behind us. But that can’t possibly be true. Here are four little ideas to get big things done for Vancouverites.

NEW: The Chinese-language messages that accused non-ABC Vancouver councillors didn't start with Lenny Zhou, who has since apologized for them. They started with the mayor.

Finally! It's good this was finally approved, but...wow. What an indictment of our planning system that this took so long, and ended up being such a struggle to approve. Can you believe that NIMBYs fought against a rezoning for a SCHOOL? Sheesh.

In a democracy, we are free to disagree. But we must never, ever lie about each other. This isn’t okay.

My response to ABC Councilor Lenny Zhou making serious, false, and malicious accusations about the four non-ABC councillors, including @lucymaloney.bsky.social of @onecityvan.bsky.social, on his civic matters short video series targeted at the Chinese community. （中文翻譯請見下帖）

I see @russilwvong.bsky.social already posting the emerging Left/Right/Urbanist/Preservationist axes for Vancouver's upcoming mayoral contest. Note also that Russil's running for a OneCity Council nomination. Another champion for housing, he'd be great! morehousing.substack.com/p/progressiv...

If you're curious about the St. George Rainway - come for a walking tour the afternoon of March 3rd, with myself and Julie M. from @cityofvancouver.bsky.social Tour hosted by @grinbc.bsky.social www.eventbrite.ca/e/st-georges...

Our longtime volunteer @rhifaux.bsky.social was hit by a driver yesterday on the way home from a road safety workshop at city hall. She is home from the hospital and recovering with a broken wrist. We're grateful it wasn't worse, and outraged it happened at all. More to say soon.

Ken Sim won’t be defeated by posts, polls, or prayers. He’ll be defeated in a vote. That takes conviction in a single progressive candidate who can unify this city.

It was an honour to stand before the membership to accept the nomination. Vancouver is ready for change. Let’s build a city where we can all belong.

congratulations to @wazaroff.bsky.social — OneCity’s spectacular nominee for Mayor. sincere congratulations to Amanda Burrows for running such an inspiring and disciplined campaign! our party and our movement is better for it. (ft. a Mike Tan cameo and me screaming with a notebook)

Congratulations @wazaroff.bsky.social! Great things in store for @onecityvan.bsky.social under your leadership. #healthyfuture

Thank you @brenttoderian.bsky.social

Thank you @drmelissalem.bsky.social !

Thanks @lausterna.bsky.social!

Thank you to the members of @onecityvan.bsky.social for your trust & for your votes. 🙏 (Live skeets by WA for Mayor Campaign Team of the Nomination Speech) Thread 🧵 #VanPoli 1 / XX

I’ve spoken with hundreds of @onecityvancouver.bsky.social members over the last few months. One sentiment comes up again and again: Somewhere in the last ten years, people stopped believing Vancouver could actually build anything anymore. 🧵

My heart is with the people of Tumbler Ridge tonight, with the friends, families & loved ones of those lost in today’s tragedy. I will circulate resources as they become available & I encourage everyone to lean into supporting our fellow British Columbians.

Do you like detailed reads on a Sunday morning? Of course you do. Here’s the full policy brief for my plan to Greenlight Vancouver, and get our city moving. assets.nationbuilder.com/williamforva...

I voted. Let's Do This!

Before the last elections, I wrote a Jacobin essay arguing that it was time for Vancouver to rediscover the promise of its past and talking up @onecityvan.bsky.social. The moment was missed, but delighted to vote for @wazaroff.bsky.social as its mayoral candidate today. jacobin.com/2022/10/vanc...

Parents can’t wait. It’s time for Childcare By Right.

Voting opens today in the OneCity nomination - Vancouver's only contested mayoral nomination. If you're a supporter of mine, VOTE NOW! If you're undecided, read on 👇️

Very important proposal for bus signal priority in Vancouver by Mayoral hopeful @wazaroff.bsky.social running for @onecityvan.bsky.social. Transportation equity means prioritizing transit that’s moving a LOT more people in a lot less space. That’s ironically better for EVERYONE, including drivers.

William Azaroff, who is seeking OneCity's nomination to run for Vancouver mayor, is proposing city-wide coordinated traffic signals that could cost up to $200 million. 🚦 It'd also enable extensive signal priority for #TransLink buses. #vanre #vanpoli dailyhive.com/vancouver/va...

There is a way to make Vancouver buses up to 18% faster that no one is talking about. It does not require digging tunnels. The solution is hidden in plain sight at our intersections.

A day spent learning about how we can honour the legacy of Hogan’s alley as we build around false creek, and a night spent watching my son play at the Fox Cabaret with his band, The Incident.

I'll be voting for William Azaroff. One big reason: he's a serious housing, climate, & environmental health champion. He's been a leader on getting gas out of buildings, the unglamorous but essential work of cutting emissions and protecting public health. 2/

If you didn’t catch it this morning.

This week, Councillor Lucy Maloney is bringing forward a motion to reinstate the city’s Living Wage. Right now is the chance to write in or sign up for the speaker's list, you've got until 5pm. Ken Sim has left janitors, security guards, and traffic control workers hanging.
