Your voice matters: Shape WTC’s election priorities
Do you live, work, study, or access services in Vancouver? We want to hear from you!
Help shape the policy pledges we’ll share with Mayor and Council candidates in Vancouver’s 2026 municipal election.
wHAT is Our City Hall?
Our City Hall, formerly known as the Hot Pink Paper, is WTC’s campaign for courageous local policies that work for everyone—especially the communities too often left out of party platforms and council chambers.
We listen to community needs, shape them into clear policy priorities, secure commitments from mayor and council candidates, and then hold city council accountable throughout their four-year term.
What Is the Our City Hall Survey?
The survey is one of the key ways we hear from our community on what they need from city council to belong, participate, and thrive in Vancouver. It asks about:
The issues you want mayor and council to take action on
Your experiences with civic engagement
The communities and identities we’re hearing from.
Your responses will directly inform the policy asks we put to mayor and council candidates in the upcoming election, and shape our advocacy over the next four-year council term.
Who Should Take the Survey?
Anyone who lives in Vancouver (or works, studies, and accesses services here) is invited to complete the survey. We especially want to hear from people who are often excluded from party platforms and council chambers, like folks who are women, trans, gender-diverse, renters, workers, Black, Indigenous, disabled, seniors, youth, sex workers, and newcomers.
How to Complete the Survey
The survey is available online in English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Tagalog, Spanish, Punjabi, Vietnamese, Farsi, Korean, Portuguese, French, and Japanese. We can also share a print-ready version with you–just email info@womentransformingcities.org.
The survey should take you about 15 minutes to complete.
You'll have the option to enter a monthly draw for a $100 Visa gift card. Complete the survey by March 4th to be eligible for this month's draw.
