Over the past two terms on Council, I have used a consistent approach: listen carefully, understand the facts, consider the long-term consequences, and seek practical solutions that serve the broader community. I want to make decisions that balance housing needs, environmental stewardship, fiscal responsibility and economic opportunity.

 

I have worked to ensure residents' voices are reflected in Council decisions by consistently supporting development that respects North Cowichan's Official Community Plan (OCP) and opposed proposals that would encourage urban sprawl, reduce agricultural land, threaten sensitive environments, or leaves taxpayers with unnecessary infrastructure costs.

 

My priorities for the future are:

1. Protecting Taxpayers through Fiscal Responsibility
2. Safeguarding Our Environment.
3. Building a Stronger, Safer, More Resilient Community
4. Supporting Agriculture and Food Security
5. Fostering a Prosperous Economy and Meaningful Local Jobs.

6. Managing Growth Responsibly

I would be grateful for your vote on October 17 and honoured to continue serving you and the North Cowichan Community.  Thank you for your trust and support.
