Murry Krause is currently the only nominee for President of the Union of BC Municipalities which has its convention in Victoria from September 26-30.

If elected, Krause would continue to push the issue of a province-wide anti-poverty strategy.

“I think it is important to acknowledge the whole board are advocates for a strong anti-poverty strategy, multiple resolutions have passed on the floor of the convention asking for the province to look at a sustainable program.”
