GreenVote council candidate Roslyn Cassells is a strong voice for nature and social justice. The local English Second Language teacher was first elected to Vancouver Park Board, becoming Canada’s first elected Green. She’s a
staunch advocate for homeless people and social housing, renters, transit users, wild life and companion animals… an LGBT and First Nations ally. In 2018 Cassells took the City of Surrey to BC Supreme Court, challenging plans to build a road through 17 endangered species’ habitats in Hawthorne Park and drain a 5,000 year old bog. Shortly after she started a grassroots campaign against mandatory Btk spraying in North Surrey, then developed a Peafowl Coexistence Plan for the Sullivan Heights Community, and advocated for underpasses and temporary road closures for the endangered Western Toad in South Surrey. Best practices throughout Surrey, No Net Loss of Greenspace, spay-neuter programs, & free community events!

I have been a passionate community volunteer for many years in Surrey – an engaged parent who served lengthily as PAC officer at my kids’ school in Guildford, an involved
resident volunteering in various capacity to different charitable foundations, immigrant clusters; and service-oriented groups; and is the founder and leader of the organization of the hardworking, friendly Filipino community. If elected Councillor, my priorities will be to ensure that there will be immediate actions to guarantee that our communities are safe; that there will be adequate transit and transit access in many areas; that there will be more public consultation and community outreach on issues that matter to many; that there will be more neighbourhood cohesion, seniors and youth programs, affordable housing; and that there will be enough resources needed to address poverty and mental health. We will work together to further improve this great city!
