Wesley Mitchell to run for Prince George City Council

The race for PG City Council has its first candidate.

This afternoon (Monday) at City Hall, Wesley Mitchell announced he would be running for a seat.

“I want to help solve community issues, such as homelessness, and the sad condition of our downtown core,” Mitchell said.

“I have lived on the streets myself, I have lived through tough issues and I can relate to many of the people downtown, not only in Prince George, but in British Columbia and Canada, and I have real solutions for the people of Prince George to consider.”

Mitchell is the co-founder of the University Hospital of Northern B.C. Drummers.

The municipal election will take place on October 15th.
