Biographie

soumis par le candidat ou son équipe
I am a retired professional forester who is running for City Council on October 15th . I ran in 2018 and found the process to be highly rewarding and I'm still concerned about many of the same issues such as climate, housing and agriculture.

I believe strongly in the importance of education and am an active member of the P.E.O. Sisterhood. I recently obtained a Bachelor of Integrated Studies at the University of the Fraser Valley with a Wetland Conservation theme.

I am very active in the community and serve in a leadership position for several non profit organizations including: Rotary Club of Chilliwack, Fraser Valley Watersheds Coalition, Cheam View United Church, and Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve Society.

With my husband Bill, I raised three sons and now enjoy spending time with four grandchildren. I love hiking, kayaking and gardening. I always enjoy sharing nature with my community and can be found leading interpretive walks around the City.

Raison de la candidature

soumis par le candidat ou son équipe
Climate change is our biggest priority, followed by affordable housing. Municipalities have the authority and ability to implement initiatives that will make a big difference.

At the municipal level, we can mandate a requirement for a percentage of affordable housing. We can protect and enhance our urban forest canopy. We can provide financial support for climate-friendly building conversions.
