“I'm thrilled to endorse Matthew Miller for Nanaimo City Council. As a former labour leader, I've known Matthew to be a strong advocate for worker safety in the healthcare industry and he represents his members effectively with the provincial union. He has the experience to be an effective voice for progressive, yet principled, municipal policy that will support the residents living in Nanaimo.”
Kane Tse
Former President, Health Sciences Association of BC
“I've known Matthew for several years as a colleague and friend. His leadership as our regional director was demonstrated most recently on the nursing strike picket lines in July. He was the first HSA member on the line and was the last to leave, and this encouraged our members when we needed to show solidarity with the nurses at NRGH.”
Nicole Guy
Lead Steward, Nanaimo Regional General Hospital
“Matthew is incredibly organized and committed to making Nanaimo a better place to live. He has practiced sonography in rural communities across Canada, from the Atlantic provinces all the way to Nunavut. Rarely do I see a young man with such a strong desire to see first-hand the vastness of our country, and I believe that his perspectives will be valuable for a growing city such as ours.”
Peter Dasler
Director, MY CRC Foundation
“Matthew's ability to connect and build a connection with anyone is the open-mindedness we need to see more of, and I know he will create positive change for our city in a leadership role on Council.”
Angelo Batoon
Acute Care Rehab Assistant
“We have known Matthew for several years and believe he would be a tremendous addition and representative to Nanaimo City Council! We believe his ideas and enthusiasm paired with his hard work will truly make a difference.”
