I want to thank everyone for their support during the civic election campaign. While I didn't win a seat on Council this time around, I earned a respectable 14, 514 votes. What's more, the SCC team was able to add two more progressive Trustees (Laurie Larsen and Ijaz Chatha) to the Surrey Board of Education!
The campaign was hard-fought, with countless hours put into door-knocking, phoning, data entry, and signs. I am proud of the fact that the SCC team was able to speak to the issues that are most important to people in Surrey, whether that's thinking critically about the way we choose to grow and develop, the sorry state of public transit service here, the importance of protecting our environment and especially the sensitive salmon watershed at Campbell Heights, or the way we choose to govern ourselves (the at-large system v. the wards system).
I'm looking forward to keeping these issues alive over the next three years, and for raising new topics as they come along!
Thanks again for all your help,
Stephanie
