Independent Campaign
On February 28, 2009 in the District of North Vancouver, Marley launched his campaign as an Independent candidate in British Columbia's West Vancouver-Capilano riding against incumbent Liberal MLA Ralph Sultan. Commentators compared Marley to Don Quixote or stated he had not made it easy for himself since West Vancouver-Capilano is probably the safest seat for the Liberals in BC.

Famous quotes containing the words independent and/or campaign:
“Whether changes in the sibling relationship during adolescence create long-term rifts that spill over into adulthood depends upon the ability of brothers and sisters to constantly redefine their connection. Siblings either learn to accept one another as independent individuals with their own sets of values and behaviors or cling to the shadow of the brother and sister they once knew.”
—Jane Mersky Leder (20th century)
“The fact that a man is to vote forces him to think. You may preach to a congregation by the year and not affect its thought because it is not called upon for definite action. But throw your subject into a campaign and it becomes a challenge.”
—John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)
