“OUR city isn’t [insert name of a much more livable & successful city here].”

Trust me, we know that. It’s abundantly obvious that you’re not that city.

That city made, and continues to make, much better choices with fewer excuses.

The real question is, do you want YOUR city to be better or not?

The decision around the purchase of the Langford Aquatic Centre has been a challenging one. Long term financial considerations lean towards purchase with a potential $121 million saved over 42 yrs however tax increases will have impacts to consider.

Attended SIPP's Local Leadership forum on Nov 26—great discussions with leaders, businesses, and non-profits. We mapped our regions' futures and shared ideas to tackle common challenges.

SIPP’s concise report captures it all. Worth a read:

If anyone knows a better way to embed these instagram videos please let me know.

Lots of questions around why we are considering a 5 year over a 25 year loan.

I attempt to provide some context here in this 2 part video

First post on BlueSky! Starting a video series about the Langford Aquatics Centre. Should the City buy it or keep leasing? It’s about stable, long-term recreation, not just YMCA operations. I’ll explain why this matters and what’s at stake—stay tuned or follow!
