Listen "A transit election"
Episode Synopsis
Only West Vancouver is openly defying the province's multiplex zoning law, while a few other municipalities are banking on an extension. Translink screams that the sky is falling and the BC Conservatives will solve the day with an audit. And nominations heat up. Federally, we have a new labour minister and a report that Elections Canada is considering recommending changes to candidate nomination processes.LinksNearly 90% of B.C. communities have adopted small-scale multi-unit housing legislation | BC Gov NewsProvince issues West Vancouver 30-day notice to conform with housing rulesHundreds of bus routes, thousands of SkyTrain trips at risk without funding: TransLink - BC | Globalnews.caHalf of transit services cut without new funding model | TransLinkFuture of Metro Vancouver transit at stake in this Provincial Election - Access for EveryoneJohn Rustad: No More Billion-Dollar Bailouts – Time to Get TransLink Back-on-Track - Conservative Party of BC BC United announces North Shore transportation plan to alleviate traffic congestion'Playing field not level': Jeanette Ashe drops out of NDP nomination race in Vancouver-YaletownMelissa de Genova runs for the BC ConservativesGatineau MP named labour minister after O'Regan resignation | CBC NewsElections Canada floats suggestions to shield nomination contests from meddling
