I have lived in Coquitlam my entire life, I’m aware of the major issues in our city. We need to ‘Keep It Super Simple’ in regulation, policy, for homeowners and city business. Easier to understand and less volume of paperwork. We need more sports training facilities, like baseball and others, so that youth have great places to excel in the sport they love. We need to build on community & senior centres, libraries, parks and connecting communities. Improving our road network.

Police, Fire and Search & Rescue receiving increased funding to be effective in the extremely important jobs that they do everyday. We need to encourage PoCo to build their own police station - as the one in town centre is full now.

Handle the housing issues differently, from homelessness to the different levels of housing affordability that uses a Made in Canada solution to solve these issues. A city review of what works and what does not.

Good financial management. Maintain city services, be responsible with the taxes collected. Encourage more growth in the commercial and industrial tax base to limit tax increases on residential properties.

The city should be looking at involving the local user groups to help design and get their assistance on building these capital builds for less.

Dealing with the wildlife attractants issues with more education.

Buying local and Canadian made as a first priority for all purchases.
