North Vancouver Candidates’ Views
on Arts, Culture, Heritage

To help inform North Vancouver voters about candidates’ positions regarding arts, culture and heritage leading up to the municipal and school board elections, we sent a questionnaire to all candidates.  Their responses are compiled here, accessed through the links below.

The responses have been separated into municipalities, indicated by iconic public art located in each.
