Action-oriented. Bold. Compassionate.

A passionate, tenacious leader who puts in the time to critically examine the issues for sound decision-making.

Wendy is a passionate, approachable, knowledgeable and dedicated individual who cares deeply for the Comox Valley and ALL it’s residents. She lives her values of advocacy, supporting local businesses, reconciliation, promoting active transportation as well as support for arts & culture and food security.

I have known Wendy for many years and have always been impressed by her tireless ability to advocate for important causes. I was particularly impressed by her willingness to work to make the home occupation bylaw more up to date and accommodating for today's small businesses, as well as everything she has done to support urban agriculture. She does her research on every issue, and has proven to be creative in her approaches to challenges. Her first term on council was an impressive one, and I am excited for the chance to vote for her once again in the upcoming election. She has my heartfelt endorsement.

Wendy is a strong advocate for all our citizens. Her values and priorities, specifically food security, climate action, protecting our natural assets while supporting all citizens, local businesses, and our arts and culture are all in direct alignment to what I feel is necessary in our leadership.

Issues like local food security, sustainable economic development, and affordability and diversity in housing are high up there on many peoples' list of priorities for the Comox Valley. Wendy’s commitment to ensuring all voices are heard and to finding achievable solutions to these and other important issues move us closer to the kind of community we ALL want to be a part of.
