Achieving For Delta is a municipal political party in Delta, British Columbia, Canada. It is led by an excutive team who according to Elections BC is owned by Don Sangster and the Financial Agent is Knut Nordlie. The party was formed in 2018 by George Harvie following the resignation of former mayor Lois Jackson, electing 4 out of 6 council members.
On October 15th, 2022, Achieving For Delta ran a slate for the 2nd time, electing 7 out of 7 city council slots, and 6 out of 7 school board slots.
Second Term (2022-Present) On May 7th, 2024, four councillors (Dylan Kruger, Daniel Boisvert, Rod Binder, Jennifer Johal) voted to remove George Harvie from the Metro Vancouver board. The decision followed concerns raised by the councillors regarding the mayor’s spending of city funds for business-related travel expenses.[2][3][4]
On December 3, 2025, four councillors were removed by Mayor George Harvie from the Achieving for Delta slate.[5]
The four councillors, formerly associated with Achieving for Delta, accused Harvie of limiting communication and attempting to centralize decision-making within City Hall. Harvie removed the councillors, stating the group of four “did their best to isolate and sideline me and get me removed from Metro Vancouver,” and that they should not be surprised they were removed from his party, stating political motive from the four in their decision to remove him from the board.[6]
2026 Municipal Elections As of May 2026, Harvie has announced a slate for the elections in October 2026, with incumbent councillors Jessie Dosanjh and Alicia Guichon on board as well as incumbent trustee Nick Kanakos and new candidates Sonya Sangster, Ikjot Sandhu, and Jennyfer Cassar, and for schoolboard Achieving for Delta has named Erica Beard, Joe Muego and Nimmi Daula, all current trustees who are seeking re-election while also adding newcomer Sagar Sanghera.[7]
