ABC Vancouver went from 19 of 27 elected seats in 2022 to a single council seat, and COPE did the most damage: it elected all 12 candidates and posted the highest average vote per council candidate. Pete Fry won the mayoralty, but with the Greens holding four of 10 council seats, matched by COPE's four, governing around COPE could prove costly.
