I have lived here for over 10 years now, after marrying my husband brought me across the river. In this time, I keep seeing candidates for the city council pledge over and over that even though they do not live in east Vancouver, they will do their best to represent us.
So I am voting for a resident of my own Fircrest neighborhood: Mike Pond. It is time for some fresh ideas and a fresh perspective to the problems we have, with an east Vancouver point of view. I am tired of politicians, tired of political people looking for a new office. None of them are really leading us along the road to equality across the city, except Mike Pond.
