BC United introduce Columbia River-Revelstoke candidate
BC United today introduced a candidate to replace retiring Columbia River-Revelstoke (CRR) MLA Doug Clovechok.
“BC United proudly announces Scott McInnis as the Columbia River-Revelstoke candidate for the upcoming provincial election. With a deep commitment to community service and a wealth of experience in education, McInnis will be a strong advocate for his community,” a party press release stated.
Originally hailing from a small farming community in Ontario, McInnis has been a proud resident of Kimberley since 2010, where he and his wife Diana have built their home and raised their teenage son, Luke.
As an educator for the past 15 years, McInnis’s dedication to fostering excellence in education and advocating for child care has been unwavering. His career, spanning both the public and independent school system, and as a member of the BCTF, has equipped him with a deep understanding of the challenges facing B.C.’s education system, the media release noted.
“I am truly humbled to have the opportunity to earn the support of our community and I look forward to bringing forward real solutions and new ideas to tackle the failing policies of the NDP,” said McInnis. “BC United is the only party with the track-record and ideas to fix the crises we are facing in health care, cost-of-living and crime — and I look forward to advocating for you each and every day.”
“Scott’s unwavering commitment to education and child care will make him an important voice in BC United’s Team 2024 slate of candidates, and I know he will bring that commitment to all issues facing the residents of Columbia River-Revelstoke,” said BC United Leader Kevin Falcon.
“BC United continues to nominate candidates from a wide variety of backgrounds including health care, business and community advocacy, demonstrating to British Columbians that we are the only party ready to form government and hit the ground running on day one.”
“It has been an honour to serve the people of this wonderful riding, and I am delighted to see someone as committed and capable as Scott McInnis step up to continue this important work,” said retiring Columbia River-Revelstoke MLA Doug Clovechok.
“I have no doubt Scott will be a strong advocate for our community, and we are lucky to have him stepping forward. I look forward to continuing to support Kevin Falcon and Scott McInnis through the next election.”
