Trio of Kamloops women councillors hoping collaboration leads to more change in city
KAMLOOPS — They’re not calling it an official partnership, but the trio of Dale Bass, Sadie Hunter and Kathy Sinclair feel, as the only women on council, it’s important to band together.
“[It’s] progressive, somewhat visionary,” said Bass. “It’s fair to say we don’t always agree on everything, but we find a way to discuss things and come up with some solutions.”
Sinclair added, “We have conversations outside of council meetings. Less than five of us for sure because five councillors is a quorum. Just in conversation, sometimes on the weekend, we’ll be chatting about something, we’ll be chatting about the overdose crisis or street issues, for example.”
