We Want to Hear From You: What Powers This City?

We're gearing up for our Power 50 issue and need your help.

It feels like just yesterday we published our 2024 Power 50 list, but here we are again, getting ready to start our annual process of gabbing with industry insiders and grilling off-the-record fixers about who is really shaking things up in this town.

As part of this year’s highly anticipated package about who powers this city (you’ve signed up for your free print subscription, riiiiight?), we want to go beyond our usual panel of (awesome, very cool, highly appreciated) advisors, to take the pulse of the city at large… so we’re gonna need your help.

We want to hear from our power readers: What powers you? What powers this city? We’ve got a mix of questions—some sincere, some silly, some vital (see: power ballads)—to try and get a sense of Vancouver’s truest power sources, as reported from the frontlines.

So go ahead, sound off! Your answers could be featured in an upcoming issue of Vancouver magazine, which you will then get to read in the beautiful print edition that will be delivered right to your door because you just subscribed. Name a more powerful feeling than that.
