I’m Dave Thompson, and I’m running for re-election to Victoria City Council on October 17, 2026.
I’ve spent the last four years working hard on the issues that matter most to Victoria residents: building more homes; making streets safer for everyone; caring for our most vulnerable neighbours; and taking real action on environment and climate change.
We’ve made significant progress, as you’ll see from some of my blog posts. However, more remains to be done on these issues, and others. I’m continuing to listen, as I develop my 2026 re-election platform. My platform will be informed by the City’s recent public engagement reports, our ongoing conversations, and other sources. I’d love to hear what’s on your mind; come to one of my coffee chats, or get in touch any time.
Read my blog — where I write about upcoming council decisions, local issues, and my platform.
Stay connected — join my email list for campaign updates and event invitations.
Volunteer or donate — every bit of help makes a difference.
I’m also on Bluesky, and sometimes Instagram, Threads, Facebook and Reddit.
Many thanks to Victoria voters for electing me in 2022. With your help, I will continue in 2026.
Our team respectfully acknowledges the lək̓ʷəŋən (Lekwungen) peoples on whose traditional territory we live and work, and the Songhees and Xwsepsum (Kosapsum) First Nations whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.
