"Vancouver Mayor Sam Sullivan's dream of waving the Olympic flag from his wheelchair during the 2010 Olympic Games has been shattered.

In a surprise move, Sullivan's party -- the Non-Partisan Association -- voted to dump Sullivan and make two-term NPA councillor Peter Ladner its nominee in Vancouver's upcoming mayoralty election in November." [CTV]
