Ben Isitt - Standing Up for People and the Planet

Friend --

Since I was elected as one of your representatives on Victoria City Council and the Capital Regional District Board three years ago, I have worked hard every day standing up for what we believe in. Together we've made real progress on important issues including:

Expanding parks, trails and greenways for walking and cycling;
Advocating for affordable housing and a fair deal for everyone;
Pursuing neighbourhood-appropriate development that respects Victoria's heritage;
Supporting community centres, seniors, libraries and the arts;
Providing cost-effective public services with open, accountable local government.

In the upcoming municipal election on Saturday November 15, I need your support to continue standing up for people and the planet.

If you think change is needed in our community and world, to build fairer relationships between people and more sustainable relationships with the land and waters that sustain us, please support my efforts for Re-Election by:

Taking a lawn sign (we'll drop one off and pick it up after the election at no cost);
Volunteering to help with doorknocking, calling voters or other tasks;
Donating to the campaign.

People power is essential to our grassroots campaign, so please contribute what you can. With your help, we can continue to put social justice, ecological responsibility and good governance at the centre of municipal decision making — standing up for people and the planet.

Voting information will be available on my website, so please visit regularly and Sign Up for updates and a reminder to vote. You can also learn about my track record and ideas and my background, and provide your own views on what's important at City Hall.

Thanks for your support,

Ben
