Rebecca Bligh is a Canadian politician, who was elected to Vancouver City Council in the 2018 Vancouver municipal election.[1]

First elected as a member of the Non-Partisan Association, she left the party in 2019 claiming its ideology was driving towards the "far-right" following the election of its new executive.[2] Her concerns were echoed by 2018 NPA mayoral candidate Ken Sim,[3] while Bligh's fellow NPA councillors Melissa De Genova, Lisa Dominato, Colleen Hardwick and Sarah Kirby-Yung did not leave the party, but took steps to distance themselves from its board.[4] By 2022, all except De Genova had quit the NPA, with Bligh, Dominato and Kirby-Yung reaffiliating with ABC Vancouver, and Hardwick joining TEAM for a Livable Vancouver.[5]

As a candidate of ABC Vancouver, Bligh was re-elected to a second term in the 2022 Vancouver municipal election.[6]

Bligh identifies as queer.[7]
