Our riding is known for its amazing shoreline, rich natural and human history, and for being the home of the Royal Canadian Navy’s Maritime Forces Pacific. People living here work in construction, retail, healthcare, education, public administration, and are complemented by the Canadian Forces Base, a diverse tourism sector, and a growing population of retired Canadians who are seeking a warm, hospitable climate. We are also home to internationally renowned Royal Roads University, and have some of the best recreational facilities in the country.

The landscape of our riding is diverse and includes some of the rarest ecosystems in Canada, many of which are protected in our world-class regional parks system.

Our EDA is guided by the following objectives set out in our constitution: 

• Supporting and promoting the principles, objectives and policies of the Party and maintaining an effective EDA for that purpose
  
  
• Providing organizational and financial support to the Party’s candidate or Member of Parliament in our Riding
  
  
• Raising money and maintaining a fund to support the EDA and assist candidates
  
  
• Actively identifying potential supporters and recruiting new members
  
  
• Encouraging the participation and recruitment of youth

Our volunteer Board of Directors represents our EDA with the goal of continued representation for the Conservative Party of Canada in our riding. We receive our mandate from the membership and are elected by the membership at the annual AGM to achieve the objectives of the EDA.

The work of the board is accomplished by the various volunteers and committees. If you are interested in volunteering, donating, or if you have any questions for us, click the applicable link below.  Thank you.
