B.C. NDP name workplace safety advocate as the candidate for Kelowna-Mission

A registered Health and Safety Professional will have his name on the ballot for the upcoming provincial election.

The B.C. NDP named Harpreet Badohal as the candidate for the Kelowna-Mission riding.

“People in Kelowna-Mission need affordable housing, healthcare they can count on, and a more affordable day-to-day life. David Eby and the B.C. NDP have taken action to tackle these challenges. There’s more to do, but this is the leader and the team we need,” Badohal said in a release.

“John Rustad has promised to tear up our Housing Action Plan, which will unlock 300,000 homes for middle-class people. His healthcare policy contains a $4.1 billion cut. Those would hurt the people of my community. We can’t afford the risk.”
