Before you cast your ballot in this municipal election - ask yourself - has your elected official been honest?  Ethical?  A good steward of the public purse?  Or have they been a chaos agent at the centre of multiple costly controversies? Choose wisely.   Your vote counts. ✅

It is the most ridiculous speech and rational for calling an election I have ever heard in my life! He destroyed the Province now he’s apparently telling everyone that he is the only one who can fix it !
BC NDP Premier David Eby calls snap election. You won't believe this, but he's running against Donald Trump.

Pour a drink out tonight for every BC municipal campaign that has been at it for way too long, only to lose the next month of media cycle to a provincial election that no one, except for David Eby's opportunism, asked for.

Surrey City Hall needs a watchdog. 🧐 ​I am committed to restoring trust and financial responsibility at City Hall. An independent Auditor General is essential to ensuring transparency and accountability for every taxpayer dollar. ​It’s time to do better for Surrey.

Hard-working families shouldn't be treated like an ATM for City Hall. Linda Annis and Surrey First are pledging strict fiscal responsibility and an end to wasteful spending. #SurreyBC #TaxpayerRespect

Millions in taxpayer dollars were burned on Mayor Locke’s failed, ego-driven court battle against the province. Surrey First will stop wasting public money on lawsuits and redirect those millions straight into frontline crime prevention. #SurreyBC #TaxpayerWaste #surreyfirst

Mayor Locke ordered hiring freezes and refused to pay new recruits while crime pressures mounted. Active sabotage. Surrey First will immediately open recruitment, guarantee officer payroll, and fill critical staffing gaps. #Surrey #SupportSPS #SurreyFirst

Surrey is one of Canada's fastest-growing cities but policing has been stalled by 8 years of political fighting. Surrey First will deliver a modern, fully supported local force equipped to handle our rapid population growth. #SurreyBC #ModernPolicing #SurreyFirst

Surrey Police Board chair Rob Stutt is an embarrassment, he was boo’ed by dozens of people, including police officers, at today’s board meeting and walked out of the meeting refusing to answer one simple question: why was the chief fired? Stutt is a disgrace @GlobalBC

There was a suggestion today made to the Surrey Police Board that former fire chief Larry Thomas filed the initial motion to fire chief constable Norm Lipinski, Thomas refused to answer if that was correct or not, the public deserves to know, absolutely disgraceful @GlobalBC

The citizens of Surrey deserve answers. The #SPS members deserve stability and to be treated with respect. This transition has been a fiasco. #publicsafety #surreypolicetransition #oursurrey #surreyfirst
This is Surrey Police Board chair and city councillor Rob Stutt walking out of the police board meeting today, he did not want to answer any questions about why Chief Constable Norm Lipinski was fired ⁦@GlobalBC⁩ ⁦@jarmstrongbc⁩

What an embarrassment today’s Surrey Police Board meeting was, the SPS union president was interrupted a number of times by board chair Rob Stutt…union president said “this police transition has been politicized from the beginning” ….so true! @GlobalBC @CUrquhartGlobal

We’re organized, we have a plan, we’re door knocking and we want to hear from voters! Vote Linda Annis for mayor in October and our #surreyfirst team including me and we’ll turn this city around and oh, we will support the Surrey Police Service!

Public safety must be the number one issue, because when a city is not safe, nothing else matters. Surrey Police do not have enough officers and resources, and they do not have a mayor who has their back, Brenda Locke cut the SPS budget by 47 million this year #surreyfirst

Let’s be clear and provide some facts: The mayor’s opposition to the Surrey Police Service is well known, she initially told the SPS to stop hiring new officers, then she took the BC government to court, and a few weeks ago she cut the police budget by 47 million #surreyfirst
