Geoff Meggs

Geoff Meggs was elected to Vancouver City Council in 2008. He is a founding member of Vision Vancouver and has previously served as Executive Assistant to Mayor Larry Campbell.

Geoff is an award-winning journalist and author whose career has combined community and social activism with senior leadership positions in government and the labour movement. Committed to finding a balance between idealism and pragmatism, he has played a leadership role in bringing key issues to the public eye.

As a journalist, he was the first to flag the threat posed to wild salmon by salmon farming, he exposed top-level political interference in Ottawa that led to the approval of a polluting molybdenum mine, and he spotlighted waste and mismanagement in the health care system.
Geoff Meggs lives with his wife, Jan O’Brien, his daughter Claire and their loyal dog Felix in a False Creek town house. Their oldest daughter, Caitlin, lives and works in Victoria.
