Nick Poppell

Having served on the Vancouver Centre EDA, and as vice chairperson of the Green Party of Vancouver, I have the perspective and experience that will help represent the voices of BC on Federal Council. On these boards, I have helped foster a safe, inclusive environment, where voices are fairly heard and respected. Currently residing in Vancouver, I was born and raised in the Lower Mainland. After earning a BFA in Theatre at UVic, I continued my career in the entertainment industry, working in theatre, film, and video games, developing skills in production and facilities management. I am extremely fortunate that my work has taken me all over BC, touring from Vancouver to Victoria, Haida Gwaii, and beyond. I recently worked on the inspiring Vancouver East federal campaign, helping with logistics and strategic direction. My proudest Green achievement lies with the 2018 Vancouver municipal election, where we elected 9 of 10 candidates, delivering the largest Green caucus in Canada. Over that campaign, I took the lead on locating and renovating the campaign office, offered logistical advice, and organized the filming and release of 60+ campaign videos.

If elected I will focus on these three objectives:

1. Listening to the members of our EDAs, communication is key to us moving forward.
2. Advocating for the reallocation of resources for an office space and staff in BC.
3. Actioning on diversity/inclusion, these are the foundations on which we will grow the party and move forward, together.
