Hello, I’m Shea Smith running for Council. I have a lifetime of critical experience with which some may call ‘’the other side of the tracks’’, since a young age raised in group homes and foster care. I spent previously much of my youth and adult life, one way or another, trapped in the system. I can tell you, I know the struggles personally. The street community needs a voice. As many decisions regarding them are made without them. Victoria officially has no strategy to tackle this ongoing housing crisis. Soluotions not guesses. Experience not experiments are the only thing that will bring effective healing change for the community. We have the resources and the ability .Without spending another dime. To stifle the crises in this great City. Subsidies, job creation, human rights. community, and especially housing are my goals. Effective, inclusive, bridge building, positive, experienced change is mandatory.

Reason for running
