WELCOME!
I have lived in New Westminster since 1978 and was elected to City Council in 1996 where I served until 2005. I was then elected to the Provincial Legislature where I served four years before retiring due to a serious illness. After a life saving organ transplant, I am very excited about the prospect of serving my community again as one of your City Councillors.
