“He’s a warm, likable no-nonsense person who gets things done. He won the town’s byelection last November, campaigning on a three-pronged promise that included bringing more family doctors to the area. He delivered by personally setting up a Comox Valley-wide taskforce that has successfully brought 13 new doctors to our region since January. He’s not afraid to take principled stands and is always willing to negotiate and comprise to find win-win solutions.”
