Last week, we celebrated our 2022 Power 50 list at the Vancouver Club. We toasted to the change-makers that shape our city, and this year, the list-ers truly brought it: the 2022 speeches were the best yet. The Power 50 took the stage to celebrate achievements, to advocate for change, to tell heartfelt stories and to thank the folks who support and uplift them (and to lip-sync). Here are a few snapshots from a truly inspiring night.
The Vancouver Club was our splashy event space—with our stunning Power 50 cover greeting guests as they arrived.
