Vancouver Election 2026 / Mayoral candidates

TEAM for a Livable Vancouver · Candidate for mayor

Colleen Hardwick

By Konrad · Sources checked 14 September 2026

Background

Hardwick served on Vancouver City Council from 2018 to 2022. Her campaign biography describes a career in film production and the founding of the public-consultation platform PlaceSpeak. She is running for TEAM for a Livable Vancouver.

Published priorities

TEAM’s current planning platform proposes neighbourhood-led planning, protection of older rental buildings, more co-ops and restored parking minimums. It also calls for changes to provincial housing legislation.

A question to follow

How many additional homes would the neighbourhood plans allow, and how would the party deliver co-ops while protecting existing renters?

This is Side Street’s reporting question, not a question already answered by the candidate.
