s ( PREVIOUSLY #37, 2013) CHIEF OF STAFF, NDP

Local Rep There was some high-™ving around Vancouver City Hall when the news came that Geo¢ Meggs—city councillor for almost a decade, one-time communicat­ions guy for former premier Glen Clark—was going to be chief of sta¢ for new premier John Horgan. Meggs knows intimately the city ™les that require co-operation from the province: transit, housing, Uber, Airbnb. Meggs, who was on the NDP’s election platform committee with Carole James, helped draft apro-cities platform, so he’ll know how to carry it out. He’s also seen as a straight shooter—even by the Liberals.
