Achieving For Delta is a municipal political party in Delta, British Columbia, Canada. It is led by an executive team who according to Elections BC is owned by Don Sangster and the Financial Agent is Knut Nordlie. The party was formed in 2018 by George Harvie following the resignation of former mayor Lois Jackson, electing 4 out of 6 council members.
Second term (2022–present) On October 15, 2022, Achieving For Delta ran a slate for the 2nd time, electing 7 out of 7 city council slots, and 6 out of 7 school board slots.
On December 3, 2025, four councillors were removed by Mayor George Harvie from the Achieving for Delta slate.
The four councillors, formerly associated with Achieving for Delta, accused Harvie of limiting communication and attempting to centralize decision-making within City Hall. Harvie removed the councillors, stating the group of four “did their best to isolate and sideline me and get me removed from Metro Vancouver,” and that they should not be surprised they were removed from his party, stating political motive from the four in their decision to remove him from the board.
