Raison de la candidature

soumis par le candidat ou son équipe
Nicole is motivated to serve the people of Kootenay Central with integrity and accountability.

She is frustrated by the lack of representation offered by the BC NDP for the last five decades in this riding. Like her predecessors, our current MLA is forced to follow corporate political interests, rather than representing what we value here in the Kootenays.
