Rebecca Bligh
Rebecca Bligh is a Canadian politician, who was elected to Vancouver City Council in the 2018 Vancouver municipal election. First elected as a member of the Non-Partisan Association, she left the party in 2019 claiming its ideology was driving towards the "far-right" following the election of its new executive. Her concerns were echoed by 2018 NPA mayoral candidate Ken Sim, while Bligh's fellow NPA councillors Melissa De Genova, Lisa Dominato, Colleen Hardwick and Sarah Kirby-Yung did not leave the party, but took steps to distance themselves from its board. By 2022, all except De Genova had quit the NPA, with Bligh, Dominato and Kirby-Yung reaffiliating with ABC Vancouver, and Hardwick joining TEAM for a Livable Vancouver. As a candidate of ABC Vancouver, Bligh was re-elected to a second term in the 2022 Vancouver municipal election. Bligh identifies as queer. References
