Together Today. Stronger Tomorrow.
In a chaotic world, we have the opportunity to build something better—together. The challenges we face, from housing to economic growth to supporting young people, aren’t unsolvable. They just require a community willing to step up, share connections, and develop real solutions.

Real Solutions in Action
Communities across our riding are already leading the way with innovative solutions to our biggest challenges. From climate action to civic engagement, these initiatives show that real change happens when people come together. Here are some examples of what’s working in our region:
Youth Climate Corps
Paid work on climate action projects that builds skills and leadership at the same time.
Nelson Nest Lab
A community-driven lab that helped shape Nelson Next, the city’s climate action plan.
Deep canvassing
Neighbours United built support for climate action by listening first, in every kind of community.
Working with Councillor Page on Greater Nelson Economic Development has been a pleasure. He is passionate about his community, committed to delivering results, and brings creativity to a diverse range of projects. Keith would be great for our region, as he understands the needs of rural communities and would bring the same level of action, commitment, and results to federal discussions.
