Ex-Vancouver mayor Kennedy Stewart sends letter to party supporters, hints at electoral reform

Stewart and the six candidates who ran under his party, Forward Together With Kennedy Stewart 2022, were shut out in the November election.

Three months later, Stewart has sent out a letter with the municipal party’s logo to wish recipients a Happy New Year and a hi from his dog, Fergus.

The letter “indicates that they are going to keep the party alive, if they’re fundraising,” said political commentator Bill Tieleman, who ran unsuccessfully for a Vancouver city council seat in November.

But Tieleman emphasized the letter wasn’t a “hard sell” to raise money, and said the letter seemed like more of an update.

Stewart’s letter also said to expect the release this year of his book, Decrim: How We Decriminalized Drugs in British Columbia, with a link to pre-orders, days after the province on Jan.
