ABC Vancouver launches major television ad campaign

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

September 7th, 2022

VANCOUVER — ABC Vancouver launched a TV advertising campaign today introducing Ken Sim and the ABC Vancouver candidates for City Council today.  

“ABC is excited to be launching our television ad campaign,” said ABC Vancouver Campaign Director Kareem Allam. “We feel that these ads are an excellent opportunity to showcase ABC and our incredible team of Council candidates.” 

The ad campaign features Mayoral candidate Ken Sim talking to a Vancouver resident while highlighting City Councillors Sarah Kirby Yung, Rebecca Bligh, and Lisa Dominato, and Council candidates former journalist Peter Meiszner, former VPD Constable Brian Montague, operations engineer Lenny Zhou, and non-profit executive Mike Klassen. 

“ABC is Vancouver’s newest party,” continued Allam. “We’re a diverse, inclusive coalition of voters that came together out of frustration with the lack of progress on affordability, public safety, and sustainability at City Hall and the lack of a meaningful plan to address those issues from legacy Vancouver civic parties.”

In the ad, Ken Sim introduces the new ABC Vancouver party and highlights ABC’s priorities for the City of Vancouver — safety, affordability, and sustainability, while also addressing the need to support small businesses and emerging industries.

“ABC is running the most qualified, experienced team of candidates in this election,” continued Allam “We’re excited for voters to see this ad campaign and meet the ABC team.”
