TheVancouver Liberal Electors Association,[2] commonly known asVancouver Liberals, is a municipalpolitical party inVancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It is not affiliated with either the provincialBC United (formerly known as the BC Liberals) or the federalLiberal Party of Canada.[3][4]

The party was founded by political strategist and lobbyist Kareem Allam, the former chief of staff toABC Vancouver leaderKen Sim.[5] He left his role in Sim's mayoral office in February 2023, following a dispute with the mayor.[6] Allam was the campaign manager for ABC Vancouver in 2022.[7] He was also the campaign manager forErin O’Toole andKevin Falcon's respective party leadership campaigns.[8] Sim filed a lawsuit against Allam in 2025 over alleged defamatory comments that claimed he had been pulled over by police for driving under the influence and used his position as mayor to cover it up. Allam announced that he will be the party's candidate for mayor in the 2026 municipal election. He had previously endorsed theBC NDP in the2024 provincial election, describing himself as an opponent ofTrumpism and a supporter of big-tent political parties.[9][10] Park Board commissioner Scott Jensen joined the party in January 2026. School Board chair Victoria Jung announced that she would seek the party's nomination to run for City Council in late January 2026.[11]
