[Busriders-van] Vancouver Council rejects democratic selection of GVRD/TransLink boards

[Jim Shewchuk]

    More ammo for campaign to prevent the re-election of at least the Vancouver
component of Translink / GVRD...

    At the September 17th Vancouver council meeting, Council voted 9 to 2 to
reject Lewis' motion to add a ballot to the November election allowing voters
to *recommend* to council whom the electorate wish to serve on to the GVRD
and the TransLink boards.  (Councilors Lewis and Bass were the only ones
in favor)
