John Hetherington

As I have gone door to door I've had the opportunity to ask some of you what issue is most important to you? Senior care, SOGI and tariffs were a few. I extend that question out to all in Fleetwood-Port Kells to call, email or social media message with what matters to you most.

Biography

submitted by the candidate or their team
I bring depth of experience and fresh perspective as a world traveled multi-disciplinary artist, former youth & child care worker, international volunteer with youth and the homeless as well as a member of the Canadian Association of Journalists while living in Ottawa-Gatineau.

My father was born in Canada and served in the Merchant Marine, his father served in the Navy in World War II. My mother was a ships steward and immigrated from British Guyana. Together my parents made a home where I grew up on Vancouver's North Shore.

I presently reside near the Langley Township/Surrey border with my wife of twenty five years and our two grown children. If you were to try something new and choose me, I will move to the Fleetwood-Port Kells community.

I am a compassionate conservative who can bring a well spring of creative ideas and desire to see all of government to work together and partner alongside religious groups, social agencies and businesses to help better the lives of all Canadians first. Then we can better reach out to and help the rest of the world from a healthier home base.

Integrity, responsibility, transparency and accountability in government starting with all our own personal relationships at home is key to better families and a better country.

It's a tough road ahead but together we can make a positive change for our children.

Reason for running

submitted by the candidate or their team
When a candidate stepped down after the election was called, I stepped up to offer another choice to make a positive difference in our country. In order to earn your trust as your Member of Parliament, I will work twice as hard and donate half my salary back the community*.

*After the first year as your public servant in Ottawa I will re-evaluate the workload vs the compensation and with your input decide from there. I have been told that "if the job is done right it (the full salary) won't seem enough." I have some ideas of what to do with the donation money and will work together with others in the community to help women, children and seniors in need.

I am a compassionate conservative who believes in people before profit.

I want to see government work together to help make all our lives a little lighter and paychecks weightier. And I dream of a positive change where Question Period becomes Question & Answer Period.

I think we all can agree with that the PPC's four founding principles of Freedom, Responsibility, Fairness and Respect are part of the reform that Canada needs.

To my fellow candidates, all with value to add, congratulations on stepping up to make a positive difference in our communities and country. Which ever one of us is honoured with the position to serve and represent the the people of Fleetwood-Port Kells, may it be done with the utmost integrity come what may.
