Barring any withdrawals, the ballot for the 2014 Vancouver civic election looks set to be 119 names long.

That's the number of candidates who filed nomination papers with the City of Vancouver by the deadline. (In 2011, it was 94 candidates.)

Twenty-seven public offices are up for grabs: one mayor, 10 city councillors, seven park commissioners, and nine school trustees.

I count 11 slates: Cedar Party, Coalition of Progressive Electors, Green,Hotel Workers United Local 40,IDEA, NPA, One City Vancouver, Stop Party, Public Education Project, Vancouver 1st, and Vision Vancouver.
