Green Space
Promesses de RCA
Fix, update, and expand neighbourhood playgrounds so kids can have fun and stay safe.
Make it easy to report problems at playgrounds, such as loose screws or nails sticking out of wooden structures, so the city can quickly address them.
Create an urban orchard of fruit trees on city property alongside a community produce market, giving Richmondites an affordable alternative to rising produce costs.
Boost Richmond’s tree canopy by expanding access to city tree sales, giving residents an affordable and accessible way to plant trees at home.
Ensure that every park in Richmond has a clean, accessible public washroom.
No parent wants to sit on a website constantly refreshing a page just for a chance to get their kids into swim lessons. No senior wants to walk home down a dark street without lights or a sidewalk. No child wants to play on a playground with exposed screws sticking out.
Our RCA team is committed to strengthening Richmond’s connection to nature, enhancing public spaces, and ensuring every resident can enjoy a cleaner, greener, and more accessible city.
And healthcare can be hard to find. Small problems can grow into big ones if left untreated because of how hard it is to see a doctor. While healthcare is a provincial responsibility, it’s one that the city can help address.
This is all the responsibility of the city, and they’re all issues the RCA will address.

Housing & Homelessness
Housing Accessibility
Promesses de RCA
Develop a city‑owned land bank that uses public land to address our neighbourhood housing & community needs. Over time, this land bank would generate revenue while continuing to meet the needs of the community.
Increase incentives for co‑operative housing & encourage higher levels of government to reinvest in building it. Co‑ops are some of the best, most accessible homes for new families entering the housing market.
Cut red tape that causes long delays and higher costs in new housing projects, while preserving core values of building safety and neighbourhood impact. Bureaucracy should never block new, affordable homes.
For too long, City Council has ignored the real needs of real Richmondites when approving new housing. We want to work with developers, the province, non‑profits, and anyone else willing to help build the affordable homes that Richmondites truly need.
Our RCA team is going to do what the people of Richmond need instead.

Non-Police-Based Public Safety

Regularly meet with Richmond Fire‑Rescue, the RCMP, and paramedics to address any concerns raised by first responders as soon as they arise.
Work with the fire department, airport, province, Metro Vancouver, and other partners to create a made‑in‑Richmond emergency management plan.

Roads, Transit, & Getting Around
Transit Projects
Promesses de RCA
Develop a study to explore expanded transit service from Bridgeport to Steveston. We’ll use every resource at the city’s disposal to determine the best way to connect our community.
Bus service throughout the city offers a cheaper, greener way to travel than driving. By improving transit, more people will be able to take advantage of it.
The ONLY way to make this happen is to elect councillors who will advocate for it. Our team will begin working with TransLink from the day they’re sworn in to ensure Richmond gets better transit service.
If transit in Richmond were faster and more reliable, we’d see less traffic and more people riding the bus. But nobody wants to wait 30 minutes for a bus and then walk a long distance to reach their destination.
The SkyTrain is fantastic for north‑south travel, but transit service connecting the east and west sides of our city is far more limited.

Raison de la candidature

The city needs to take a proactive approach to emergency management and climate resilience.
In the past, we had effective solutions that provided people with homes they could truly afford, but the city no longer makes it easy for those kinds of developments to be built.
In the past, we had effective solutions that provided people with homes they could truly afford, but the city no longer makes it easy for those kinds of developments to be built.
I am a champion of resilience who wants to ensure Richmond’s future is safe and secure. One of my key goals is to establish an up‑to‑date emergency action plan, developed in partnership with first responders, non‑profits, the province, and other community groups, to keep residents safe if an earthquake strikes and Richmond is cut off.
I am also deeply committed to preserving local ecosystems. That means continuing the RCA’s fight to protect Richmond’s farmland, salmon, and bird habitats, among others. I know that access to green spaces, especially for youth and seniors, is a major boost to mental health and well‑being.
I would be the first council member from Sea Island in recent history, and I am dedicated to ensuring no voice is left behind. I understand that communities like Sea Island and Hamilton are often overlooked in council decisions, and if elected, I will always listen to their concerns.
