Once again, this year, I had the privilege of representing the City of Fort St. John at the 111th Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) Convention in Whistler, BC. Formed in 1905 to provide a common voice for local government, the UBCM continues to follow that mandate today. Through its resolution sessions, the Annual Convention provides a platform for local government leaders to establish policy directions for UBCM’s activities over the coming year.
Along with the Annual General Meeting, Resolutions Sessions, and Elections, there were many keynote speakers and, once again, many informative Workshops, Clinics, and Cabinet Panels.
Council also took time during the week to meet with the various Provincial ministries including Ministry of Transportation, Ministry of Energy & Mines, Ministry of Advanced Eduction, Ministry of Justice, and Ministry of Health. This was a great opportunity to boast about Fort St. John and inform them of ways in which the Province can assist us in building a stronger, more vibrant community.
