Former Vancouver Sun managing editor Kirk LaPointe isn't the only journalist running for mayor.

In Belleville, Ontario, the former managing editor of the daily newspaper in that city is also seeking the top job.

Bill Glisky entered the race after Sun Media sent him packing from the Belleville Intelligencer earlier this year.

I was surprised to see the colours he's relying on to win over voters. They bear a remarkable resemblance to those used in the past by Vision Vancouver.

Coincidence? You be the judge.
