Charles Thompson: Scottish Heritage

Crooked Mouth Dept: The last three mayors of Vancouver -Gregor Robertson, Sam Sullivan and Larry Campbell -all value their rich Scottish ancestries, according to Vancouver Sun. Vancouver has also had a host of mayors with surnames long associated, at least in part, with Scotland, including Malcolm McBeath, Louis Taylor, Gerry McGeer, George Miller, Fred Hume, Charles Thompson and William Rathie and in the city of Vancouver, people of Scottish heritage are political winners. Even prior to the election of these three kilt-loving men, the number of Vancouver mayors who have had Scottish surnames has proved impressive. Three of the past nine mayors of Vancouver, for instance, have been Campbells, which means "crooked mouth" in Gaelic. They include Gordon Campbell and Tom Campbell. As reported in the news.
