About ABC Vancouver

Real Solutions. Real Results.

ABC Vancouver is a broad, inclusive coalition where everyone is welcome.

Now in year three of our four-year mandate, we’re delivering on our commitments: making Vancouver safer, more affordable, vibrant, and well run. From schools and parks to housing and public safety, ABC is focused on practical solutions that make life better for Vancouverites.

Launched as A Better City in 2021, ABC made history in 2022 when every single candidate for Parks Board, School Board, Mayor, and Council was elected. Together, we’ve accomplished a lot — but there’s more to do. With your support, we can continue delivering real solutions and real results for Vancouver.

We acknowledge that we live, work, and play on the Unceded Territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

ABC proactively seeks to support and elevate those from traditionally marginalized and underrepresented communities including women, members of the 2SLGBTQAI+ community, indigenous persons, racialized persons, persons living with a disability, immigrants, and those who experience or have experienced economic hardship.
