Alberta MLA Shayne Anderson visits Salmon Arm

Please join Jacqui in welcoming MLA Shayne Anderson for Leduc-Beaumont when he visits our Salmon Arm office (310 Ross Street) August 17th. 

Shayne was born and educated here in BC and moved to Alberta. He was a shop steward at Telus before running for office. His pronounced facial hair drew some attention after his election, with one columnist for the National Post calling it "the most conspicuous and healthy beard seen in Canadian politics this side of the 19th century."



We are pleased to have a member of the Alberta Orange Wave join us in our riding to share the stories of their success with everyone here in the North Okanagan-Shuswap.

Monday, August 17th Activities:

  • Canvass with Jacqui and Shaye from 2:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m. Please RSVP with me if you plan to canvass. 
  • Meet and Greet Shaye from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. (310 Ross Street, Salmon Arm)

Alberta MLA Lori Sigurdson will be coming to the North Okanagan Shuswap on August 24th. Save the date. More details to follow.
