A political science major at Simon Fraser University hopes to put his field into practice at the Port Coquitlam council table.

Yesterday (Wednesday), Justin Traviss announced he plans to run for a civic seat in the Oct. 20 race.

In his press release, the 23-year-old first-time candidate said he wants “to bring a fresh perspective and positive change to Port Coquitlam.”

“Housing and affordability issues are incredibly important to me as a full-time student working to pay for my education,” the Terry Fox secondary graduate said.

Traviss also said he wants to keep PoCo’s “small town charm and welcoming nature.”
