Biographie
The BC Greens are thrilled to announce Aaron Bayes as their candidate for Abbotsford-Mission.
Aaron is a committed advocate for the Abbotsford-Mission community, where he was born and raised. After high school, Aaron enlisted in the US Army, serving in multiple roles including infantryman and analyst. His service took him to Kuwait, Iraq, and New Orleans during the Hurricane Katrina response. Upon returning home, Aaron earned a degree in psychology from the University of the Fraser Valley, where he actively contributed to student government and community volunteerism.
Currently, Aaron manages a small campground in British Columbia, balancing his love for the outdoors with his growing concerns about the increasing threat of wildfires. Having faced wildfires near his property in three out of the past four summers, Aaron has become a volunteer wildland firefighter and structure protection specialist, demonstrating his deep commitment to protecting his community.
Beyond his professional life, Aaron is also involved in democratic processes, having worked with Elections BC and Elections Canada. His leadership skills are evident through his role as president of Vancouver’s “VancouFur” convention, which has thrived under his guidance.
Aaron understands the urgency of addressing the affordability crisis that has pushed many, including himself, out of the housing market. His goal as a BC Green Party candidate is to ensure that the Abbotsford-Mission riding remains a vibrant and accessible community for everyone, through policies focused on sustainability, housing, and protecting natural spaces.
