BY-ELECTION – Mayoral candidate Hilke outlines campaign platform

With the Labour Day long weekend upon us and the campaign for the Sept. 30 Kamloops civic by-election underway, ArmchairMayor.ca welcomes statements and news releases from candidates for the mayoralty and two City council seats.

Policy statements and biographical information will be accepted, but solicitations for campaign donations will not. Limitations will be put in place if too many submissions are received from any one candidate. If they’re too wordy, they’ll be shortened.

Sound fair? Please e-mail submissions to mrothenburger@armchairmayor.ca.

Following is mayoral candidate Glenn Hilke’s platform.

• • Accessible Healthcare and Hospital Development
  • Affordable Housing for all
  • Homelessness and Poverty Reduction
  • City Wide Economic Development
  • Environmental Stewardship

Hilke says:

“I welcome your feedback and your support in the month to come.

“I would like you all to be part of my campaign team, no matter what your interests, skills, time and location.

“My campaign issues and promises will extend to all citizens of Kamloops. As you know, I am a solutions based and action focused person. I ‘walk the walk. ‘

“You can reach me as well by text, phone or email.glennhilke@yahoo.com, 250-879-0465.”
