UPDATE: I've had lots of feedback on this podcast, with many asking that I make this video fully public. So, by popular demand, I've taken the paywall off this video.
Enjoy!
In this episode of the Political Pulse Podcast, I engage in a deep conversation with Chris Sankey, the Conservative Party of BC candidate for North Coast - Haida Gwaii.
We discuss Chris's background, his motivations for entering politics, and his unique challenges as an Indigenous candidate running under the Conservative banner.
The conversation delves into the political landscape of the region, the impact of misinformation during the campaign, and the personal attacks Chris endured. Throughout the discussion, Chris emphasizes the importance of transparency, economic empowerment, and the need for a shift in mindset within the community.
Chris details his political experiences, the importance of resilience, and the need for constructive dialogue in a divided political landscape. He emphasizes the challenges facing British Columbia's economy and advocates for resource development to improve the quality of life for all citizens.
The discussion also touches on the impact of political labels and the necessity of connecting urban and rural economies for a thriving future.
Chris Sankey is an advisor to Indigenous and industry leaders, a former elected councillor for the Lax Kwʼalaams band, and a former Conservative Party of BC candidate for North Coast - Haida Gwaii. You can find some of his published articles here, here, and here.
