The City of Vancouver, along with the rest of British Columbia, held its triennial municipal elections on November 19 , 2005. Canadian citizens who were over 18 years of age at the time of the vote, and had been a resident of Vancouver for the past 30 days and a resident of B.C. for the past six months, were able to vote for candidates in four races that were presented on one ballot. In addition, Canadian citizen non-resident property owners were eligible to vote.

The ballot elects one mayor, 10 Councillors, 9 School Board Trustees and 7 Park Board Commissioners. Each elector may vote for as many candidates as there are open seats (e.g., an elector may vote for 10 or fewer Councillors).
