🚌 **Stronger transit. Stronger communities.**

I’m grateful to receive the endorsement of the , a grassroots organization advocating for free, rapid and reliable public transit across Greater Victoria.

I share their belief that adequately funded public transit is essential to building an inclusive community. I want to see better connections for underserved neighbourhoods, more reliable service, and transit that helps people of all ages, abilities and incomes get to work, school, appointments, and the people and places that matter to them.

I believe Sooke deserves a stronger voice in advocating for accessible, reliable and environmentally friendly transit. I’m proud to stand with those working toward a transit system that connects our communities and works for everyone.

🗳️ Vote this Saturday, October 17!

ICYMI - I’m incredibly grateful for the endorsement and support of Councillor Megan McMath. As the youngest member of Council, Megan’s commitment to community, collaboration, and thoughtful leadership has made a real difference in Sooke.

Here's her endorsement in her own words 📢📢📢

"As a current member of Sooke Council, I know how important it is to have people at the table who can listen, collaborate, and work constructively through different perspectives.

In my conversations with Katherine, that is what has stood out to me most. She speaks thoughtfully about bringing people together, building relationships, and focusing on what she can contribute to the community.

Municipal government is rarely simple, and meaningful progress depends on people who are willing to work with others to find practical solutions. Katherine has left me with the impression that she understands that, and I believe her collaborative approach would be a positive addition to Sooke Council."

Thank you for the confidence in my vision for our community! On October 17, vote Strongwind for a stronger Sooke ✅️ Visit www.katherinestrongwind.com to donate.

ICYMI - I am honoured and grateful to have received the endorsement of .good.sooke and the for Sooke Council alongside Kyra Lazzar For Council 🙏💛

These amazing and welcoming organizations have been champions for justice, human rights, and community solidarity, and I am proud to have their support.

Here's what they had to say:

"Both candidates have demonstrated ways they are dedicated to building tomorrow by honouring the unique histories, individualities, and cultures that braid Sooke into a home that nurtures growth toward collective care and kinship. They have both nourished so much goodness across years of dedicated involvement in the place we call home. We are grateful to be in community with them on these T’Sou-ke lands.

Their candidacies are historic in our town, and offer an opportunity for ACTION toward Reconciliation: Do Good & vote to uplift Indigenous women in leadership roles‼️ &, take your friends to the polls ✨"

- I am beyond honoured to have the endorsement for Sooke Council from Melanie Cunningham 🙏 Here's what she shared with me:

"As a former nurse and longtime member of the Sooke Shelter Society, I have seen firsthand how much our community relies on people who show up with compassion, consistency, and care. Katherine Strongwind is one of those people. Her work with Survivors, families, and community partners reflects a deep commitment to healing, dignity, and practical support.

She leads with heart, listens with intention, and brings people together in ways that strengthen the well-being of our whole region. I support Katherine in her bid for Sooke Council, and I invite you all to join me in voting for Katherine on October 17th." ✅️✅️✅️

Thank you, Melanie, for your trust and faith in me, and for all the work you do in our community 💛❤️

We are getting close to election day, and I want to take a moment to say miigwetch - thank you.

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to talk with me, ask questions, share your concerns, and tell me what you want for the future of Sooke. That is what this campaign has been about for me. Listening, learning, and having conversations with the people who make this community what it is.

I’m running for Council because I believe Sooke deserves thoughtful, independent leadership that is grounded in community.

I care about our environment, our young people, housing, the cost of living, transportation, local opportunities, reconciliation, and making sure people feel heard and included in the decisions that affect their lives.

If you believe in a Sooke that is inclusive, sustainable, connected, and prepared for the future, I would be honoured to have your support.

ICYMI - Former Candidate for Sooke Council Shaun Burns is supporting me in my bid for Council this year 🙌 Here's what he had to say:

"As someone who’s been through a campaign myself, I’ve seen firsthand what Katherine brings to the table. She listens with care, speaks with intention, treats people with respect, and has a practical approach to problem-solving. It’s a tougher road, but having independent and non-partisan people who bring their own thinking and diverse perspectives to council matters.

I have also seen Katherine actively engaging in outreach and multi-lateral thinking. Sooke benefits when more voices are willing to step forward, and I support Katherine in her bid for Council."

On October 17, vote for me and together, we can make a stronger Sooke 💪
