Sacha Peter

MLA-Elect (Richmond Centre)
Conservative Party of British Columbia

[Sacha Peter @SachaPeter]

Thank you, #RichmondCentre, for your trust. Whether or not you voted for me, I will work for you.

Congratulations to @HenryYaoRMD, Calvin Dang and Lawrence Chen on your campaigns. Putting your name forward takes courage. It was a respectful race about issues, and I thank you for that.

We may differ on how to get there, but most of us want the same things: safe streets, healthcare that works, strong schools and community centres, and tax dollars spent wisely.

To our volunteers: this win belongs to you.

Now, to work. Be my eyes and ears on the ground, and I will bring your voice to Victoria.

"The resurrection of this movement didn't happen overnight." – @AaronGunn

Aaron's Common Sense movement got @AngeloIsidorou, @AishaEstey27, @HarmanBhanguBC and me involved. Now we have a majority. Among everyone who was there at the start, Aaron's name belongs first.

Justin Ho and I have been friends for more than 30 years. He's now an engineering manager at a global trading firm.

He says I look at the data and talk to people. That's how I'll work for #RichmondCentre. Thank you, Justin.

Eric Wei and I started engineering at UBC together in 1996. He lived in #RichmondBC before moving to Taiwan.

He also mentions my "wonderfully wacky" way of looking at things. Fair. Thank you, Eric.

David Takagawa and I met decades ago at a Toastmasters club at UBC, when we were both students. He's now a partner at an IP law firm in Vancouver.

He also vouches for my steak-grilling. Thank you, David.

Dorothy Wong and I worked at the same company more than 20 years ago. She says I’m direct and honest.

Coming from a former co-worker, I’ll take it. Thank you, Dorothy, for speaking in your mother tongue, Cantonese (English subtitles).

Don Nightingale has been a Conservative since the Diefenbaker years: knocking on doors, driving voters to the polls, riding president, financial agent and three-term national Councillor.

Thank you, Don.

He's been there for me through ups and downs, and I for him. Thank you, Alfred.

Staying active is one of the best investments I make, and I enjoy every run, lift and badminton game along the way.

Prevention pays, in health, addiction and community. The cheapest problem to fix is the one that never happens.

Tim Fan spent 15 years as a civilian instructor with the Army Cadets. We met volunteering, and he’s been putting up campaign signs ever since, including mine.

Thank you, Tim, for speaking in your mother tongue, Cantonese (English subtitles).

Daniel Tsang has called #RichmondBC home since 1985 and went to Cambie High. He keeps it short: the middle class, and value for taxpayers.

Thank you, Daniel.

Years ago, Yuko Sato gave me a tour of Japan's National Diet. Every Japanese election since, I've sent her a message.

This time she sent one back. Thank you, Yuko. (Japanese, with English subtitles)

Jonathan Ho, former Richmond school trustee, knocked on doors in past campaigns while I planned behind the scenes.

Sadiq Alladina and I met as undergrads at UBC more than 20 years ago. He says I'll tell you what I think even when you disagree.

He'd know. Thank you, Sadiq.

@ChakAuRichmond and I first met in 2005 as candidates for the #RichmondBC School Board. He won. I didn't.

We've been good friends ever since. Thank you, Chak.
