綠黨8人省選逐鹿溫哥華
Sing Tao Daily The BC Green Party is placing eight candidates to contest several ridings in the Greater Vancouver area for the upcoming provincial election. The leader of the BC Green Party, Jane Sterk, spoke with the media last Thursday along with the eight candidates and other party members. Sterk indicated that aside from focusing on the province's environmental issues, the BC Green Party also places high regard on economic development and law and order problems, such as the recent gang killings. As well, she believes that the 2010 Winter Olympics will bring business opportunities to the province. The eight candidates who will run in the Greater Vancouver region for the BC Green Party are: Vanessa Violini for Vancouver-Fairview, Damian Kettlewell for Vancouver-False Creek, Jody Emery for Vancouver-Fraserview, Ryan Conroy for Vancouver-Hastings, Doug Warkentin for Vancouver-Kensington, Revel Warkentin for Vancouver-Kingsway, Laura-Leah Shaw for Vancouver-Quilchena, and Drina Read for Vancouver-West End. More than half of these candidates will be running for the first time, and most of them have resided in BC for over ten years. They are all active members of the community.
