‘Lisa Muri, Trevor Carolan and Eric Andersen have all confirmed their candidacy. While there is no formal slate-of GUARD (Group United Around’ Responsible Development) candidates, all me three: Seymour. area candi- 8 dates talk in terms of the pop- Mulation. and densification of the district.

Associations (FONVCA) should have a bigger role in council deci- sion-making. Meanwhile, over on the eastern side of the district everyone is courting Waterfront Task Force chair Glenys Deering-Robb. Deering-Robb said she is still considering her options but the likely. scenario has long-time ceuncil . watcher Corrie Kost running out the Edgemont Community Association ‘stronghold if Deering-Robb does not. This suggests that incum- bent Coun. Pac Munroe may have alienated some of his support base in the village. The ‘liberal connection ‘continues its link into district . politics with: the announce- ment of Don S, Williams ~ secking candidacy. Williams ran Katherine Whittred’s successful: cam- paign in North Vancouver- robably bet- ter known’ for his recurring “sole in the X-Files. . Williams ‘is’ also. chair of ” North’ Vancouver’s ‘Commission and said support “and promotion of the arts has § economic‘ spin-offs that ‘are “exploitable ‘to the benefit of. - ithe North Shore. “When 1 arrived in North : Arts Vancouver in 1979 it was dif- ‘ferent from: every place else «and I'd like to see it stay that ' Sway,” said Williams. John’ Playle, 2 55-year-old fongshoreman, is‘also’ consid ering throwing his hard hat in to the ring. Playle is familiar to man, council- watchers for his blunt attacks on Dykeman’s compe- tence as a chairman. “Nobody seems to be tis- cally responsible at all,” said Playle, who opposes the dis- trict's attempt to get autho- rization from the electorate for borrowing up to $26 mil- lion for capital projects. One other rumored candi- date is John Surridge who ran a spectacularly unsuccessful campaign for councillor in 1993. District voters will have their work cut out to become familiar with all the candidates by November 16.
