Brigid Cumming

Candidate for Councillor · Port Clements

Candidate-submitted profile

I first moved to Port Clements in 1967 as a small child with my parents, Tom and Wendy Quinn. I've lived here continuously since 1984, married, raised kids, worked and volunteered for many different groups. As well as being a Councillor since spring 2017, I am Council's representative to Haida Gwaii Community Futures. This past term on Council we've built a new sewage lagoon and replaced the asbestos concrete water pipes on the upper two blocks of Tingley Street. Many smaller projects have been done or are almost done. Looking forward, we need to upgrade our water storage tanks. Supporting local residents, services, and businesses remain key to building our community. I have found serving on Council challenging and worthwhile. I would like to continue to put my experience to work for the village and hope to receive your vote to serve as a Councillor on October 17, 2026.
