Daniel Anderson is the vice chair of the North Vancouver School Board, leading its audit committee and focusing on strengthening core learning initiatives. Dan is equally committed to accountability beyond education. As spokesperson for the North Shore Neighborhoods Alliance (NSNA) — a coalition of seven community associations — he has worked to expose the soaring costs of the North Shore Wastewater Treatment Plant and has called for both provincial relief and an independent public inquiry under Section 764 and Section 765 of the Local Government Act. Dan is turning his attention to municipal politics because he believes our community is at a crossroads. The systems that support us all are under strain, housing is slipping further out of reach for young people, and too many local decisions are being shaped by Metro Vancouver and distant powers in Victoria. For the past four years, Dan has fought for his community: now he’s ready to bring that fight, and his experience, to council.
