Trusted Leadership Matters

Salmon Arm needs elected council members who have up-to-speed skillsets on effective governance, financial literacy, legal responsibilities, jurisdictional clarity, funding opportunities & the many key issues facing local governments in BC ... plus a commitment to work together collaboratively.

Folks have been asking if I’ll be running again in Salmon Arm’s upcoming local election. The short answer is ‘No’ due to ongoing health issues. I want to thank Salmon Arm residents for the trust you have placed in me these past twelve years in helping make the best decisions for our community. I have felt that deeply every single day. It truly is an honour and a privilege.
