Previous community service: I have served all British Columbians by creating policies and programs provincially, and by improving efficiency within government.
If elected, what steps would you take to improve housing affordability in PoCo?
I will advocate with agencies like BC Housing, MVHC and Social Development to ensure that they are addressing our housing needs for low-income and at-risk residents.
What do you hope to accomplish as a city councillor?
I want to improve PoCo’s commercial viability and support local and new businesses. I want to ensure the provincial government is pulling its weight with regard to social programs in PoCo, and ensure future development is responsible and preserves our parks and ecology.
What do you believe is the biggest issue facing PoCo?
Prosperity is key for PoCo’s future development. By ensuring a positive business environment, we ensure our community has the resources to develop responsibly.
Would you change the mayor and council’s pay and why?
I would not. Public servants should not have control over their own salaries. There needs to be an independent process to ensure integrity.
