The Green Party has officially endorsed Pete Fry to be its Vancouver mayoral or a city councillor candidate in the 2026 civic election.

Two-term Vancouver city councillor Pete Fry has been endorsed to run for Vancouver mayor or City Council in the October 2026 civic election, after members of the Green Party of Vancouver voted unanimously last night to have him as their candidate, one way or the other.

Fry emphasizes he has not made the final decision on whether to run for mayor or attempt to be re-elected as city councillor for a third term. This decision will be made at a later time.

“I’m deeply grateful for the continued trust that the Green Party of Vancouver and community members have placed in me,” said Fry in a statement this morning.

      I hope OneCity or COPE will nominate someone, be it their respective councillor or not.

        Pretty unlikely that Orr or Maloney would jump out on their first term

        I too am curious if OneCity and COPE will band together with Fry, I think it’s the most strategic option so I actually hope they don’t nominate anyone
