He is a past Medical Director at the ‘Mountain View Manor’ residential care facility, past board member with the Delta Division of Family Practice, GP lead in the formation of the ‘Medical Hub’ at Augustine House nursing home and a past member with the committee on assisted living at FHA. 

Having served the people of Delta directly as a physician, Maha has always held a keen interest in local politics and the well being of the residents of the community he has worked and lived in for many years. Originally from Sri Lanka, Maha wants to continue to serve the people of his adopted home as an independent, thoughtful, and common sense voice on the city council.

In his leisure hours, Maha enjoys golf, pickle ball, and Latin dancing.
