Many, many years ago, I was working at CBC Radio booking guests and writing scripts for the local morning show.
One day, I contacted a brilliant teenager on the North Shore to invite him on the air.
This morning, I can’t remember what the topic was, but I do recall that he was exceptionally intelligent and articulate.
His name was Taleeb Noormohamed and last night, he announced that he’s seeking the mayoral nomination with Vision Vancouver.
From that initial conversation I had with Noormohamed, he’s since gone to Princeton and Oxford, worked alongside Liberal heavyweight Bob Rae, helped organize the Vancouver Olympics, run for Parliament in North Van, been associated with several tech firms, and done a ton of charity work.
