Next week will be a busy one for Terminal City politicos travelling the rubber chicken circuit. Among the events: on Monday, Vision Vancouver will be having its launch party at Monk McQueen's Fresh Seafood and Oyster Bar, the award-winning False Creek restaurant owned by Canadian National Railway Company chairman David McLean. Tickets to the evening event are $150. Then, on Tuesday, mayoral nomination hopeful and former provincial cabinet minister Christy Clark is buying lunch for Non-Partisan Association members at the Floata Seafood Restaurant, an infamous federal Liberal haunt. There's some speculation that Ms. Clark could announce a number of endorsements at the luncheon, which is expected to attract around a thousand supporters and moochers. The following is a copy of the invites for both events.
