Council candidate Rob Bertrand campaigns on crime, transparency and infrastructure
KAMLOOPS — Among those announcing their intention for the fall election is Kamloops’ Notre Dame Tire’s general manager.
Rob Bertrand says concerns over public safety, transparency and city infrastructure pushed him to launch a council campaign focused on representing what he calls the city’s working-class voice.
“I’m a firm believer that city council is not supposed to be a political thing. It’s not. It’s kind of frowned upon to have career politicians within city council, because it’s regular people who are representing regular people. And I’m a regular person, right? I just I feel like I’m representing a good majority of people who are the labour, the workers, the laborers, kind of the blue-collar people of Kamloops, which sort of keeps the city running.” says Bertrand.
