Issues for North Vancouver (District of)

Where do candidates stand on environment and climate?

This election is critical, and who we elect will shape the future of our community for decades to come. We engaged with candidates, and asked them to complete a questionnaire to find out where they stand on climate and environmental policies we care about.

In addition to standard form questions, each candidate had the opportunity to expand on their positions in a written section following the support/neutral/opposed portion of the survey. We encourage you to take a look at the full written entry that candidates provided. You will see that several candidates did not respond to the survey and we think that says something in itself.

To gather more information about candidates, the opportunity to hear from them in person is helpful. A list of all-candidates meetings is being kept current by the North Shore News. Seehttps://www.nsnews.com/local-news/2026-civic-election-a-running-list-of-north-shore-all-candidates-meetings-12764483.

Now is the time to elect leaders who prioritize creating a cleaner and healthier future for our communities.

Voting tip

When you vote, only vote for the candidates you want elected. If that is one mayor and five councillors, only put down those names. For council, the top candidates with the most votes are elected, so if you vote for someone that you don't really want elected, that may bump your preferred candidates off the list.
