Municipal Election 08

The race could be a tight one after campaigning quickly turned it's focus on the 'Villagegate' fiasco.
The campaign turned vicious after confidential documents belonging to Peter Ladner were leaked to the media.
The documents outlined a council in-camera vote on Oct. 14 to lend up to $100 million to the developer of the Olympic Village project.
The argument about the public's right to know and the city's right to conduct business took some of the heat off Robertson's failure to pay an outstanding SkyTrain fine.
Some other interesting races to follow are:

- Surrey: Former city councillor Gary Robinson, who served as a Surrey councillor for 13 years from 1987 to 1999, is running again. Robinson retired from municipal politics in 1999 after admitting that he had a cocaine habit. He's said to have been clean for a year.
