Abstract

The article discusses the parallels between the municipal election in Vancouver, British Columbia and the presidential election in the U.S. The election contest was between Peter Ladner and Gregor Robertson of Vision Vancouver. According to Barack Obama, social issues gave Robertson the change message he needed during the campaign. Taking hints from Obama, Robertson capitalized on the housing issue while committing to create the world's greenest city.
