“I’m honoured and excited to be running for MLA in Vancouver-False Creek for the B.C.

With your support, I’ll make sure Vancouver-False Creek has a beautiful future for you, your children and everyone who makes the same choice to live here I made so long ago. To keep Vancouver green, let’s make Vancouver Green!”
