Duncan city council election candidacies

Overview

Candidates have begun announcing their runs for the Duncan city council.

Adrian Mulholland, a former nurse and municipal councillor in Tofino, is campaigning on the principle of maintaining city livability through preventative measures. His platform focuses on addressing deteriorating public spaces, unsafe crossings, and neglected maintenance, while advocating for cooperation with North Cowichan and the Cowichan Tribes.

Bernice Timmer has also announced her candidacy, emphasizing people-based solutions through collaboration with businesses, non-profits, and government levels. Her priorities include addressing housing shortages—specifically affordable and seniors' housing—improving neighborhood safety, and managing food costs, transit, and climate change. Timmer, who holds a Master’s degree in Public Administration, intends to prioritize fiscal responsibility to prevent budget creep.
