As a young person under 35, 3 word slogans from the Conservatives were never going to help me.

I do feel hope for Canada through Mark Carney, because he strikes me as someone who does stuff, rather than just says stuff. Words I like to hear alone won't fix my future. #cdnpoli #carney #elxn45

 

Vancouver By-election ABC Competitor Candidates

I need to figure out who the leading not-ABC candidates are for this week's municipal by-election (Sat Apr 5). Help me out and pitch the best contenders? Thank you!
