Byelection Oct 25: Let’s choose a councillor who puts community first!

The Township of Langley is holding a byelection. On October 25, we will choose a new councillor to represent our voices and act in the best interests of the Township.

  • Sustainable growth today for a better tomorrow.
  • Scooter safety bylaws to protect riders and pedestrians.
  • Investing in recreation including a new swimming pool, to bring families together and strengthen neighbourhoods.
  • Embedding animal welfare into community policies: supporting spay/neuter clinics,fostering programs, and emergency planning for pets.
  • Collaboration: I will work with everyone for solutions that serve Langley.
  • Independence: I am not tied to party politics or old divisions.
  • Respect: Different perspectives make us stronger; I will always listen.

I am not a career politician — and I believe that is exactly what makes me the right choice for this by-election. When I walk into a meeting, I don’t bring political baggage, alliances, or old divisions. No one can say “she’s with this group” or “she’s against that one.” I come with an open mind, an open heart, and mutual respect for everyone.

I believe leadership starts with the ability to listen, speak clearly, and connect with anyone. I make the effort to reach out because I believe we have to try — otherwise, we’ll never know what’s possible. That’s how I build relationships and bring people together, even when perspectives differ.

Every leader is capable of doing good — and of making mistakes. What matters is being willing to admit when something doesn’t work, recalibrate, and do better for the community. That’s the approach I promise to bring — humility, honesty, and a genuine focus on serving people.

I want to help start a movement where those who step forward to lead are people who do what they say — not just talk. My disagreements with others never stop me from working respectfully and finding common ground. Yes, we all have egos, but I’ve learned to keep mine in check — and I promise, if ever I can’t, that will be the day I step down.

I’m asking for your vote because I bring a fresh perspective, rooted in lived experience, community service, and the everyday challenges of being a mother and neighbour. I want to see a Township where words are matched by action, where collaboration replaces division, and where we work together for a thriving future.
