We have an opportunity to elect open, honest people to govern McBride. It’s long past time for change! After repeated terms in office our career politicians have had ample opportunity to show us what they can do. Another term with the incumbents will be four more years of the same decline in businesses, decline in jobs, fewer children for our schools and an even more divided community. It’s been downhill for McBride since they took office. Four more years can only spell more decline. The measure of a mayor is how the town has fared under his leadership. Poor McBride since the current mayor took office our economy is far worse, our community is divided and our environment is steadily eroded.

It’s time for change! Can we elect a mayor and council who will be open and transparent? Can we elect a mayor and council who are willing to work with us rather than engage in childish stonewalling of our citizens and organizations? Can we elect a mayor and council who will respect the voters instead of being arrogant? Can we elect a mayor and council who believe that our own people have the solutions and ability to bring community prosperity? Can we elect a mayor and council who will work with us instead of promising grandiose wonders like Eco Tech and delivering nothing?

Change is possible! Good people abound in McBride. Please elect:
Loranne Martin for Mayor
Councillors: Sharon Reichert, Edee Tracy, Ralph Bezanson,
Give us a clean slate and allow McBride to move forward.

Sheilagh Foster
McBride, BC
