Fritz Wyssen seeks Quesnel Councillor seat in October

This past Sunday - Quesnel resident Fritz Wyssen announced on Facebook that he was putting his name forward for one of the 6 Quesnel City Councillor seats in this October's City of Quesnel Local General Election.  For his reasons for running, he stated:


As our 2018 City Council Election quickly approaches, I find now the best time to step forward and offer my services to our City. Quesnel has been our home for many years now and to come into the future.

For those who have not seen my face or name you only need to ask a friend or inquire at the many volunteer organizations and service industries that our city offers. While it was the BC Ambulance service that was my primary professional occupation when first I came to Quesnel my involvement has only grown into the Forest sector, Family services, and Community groups. My online presence serves to help each member of the community.

I invite you to stay tuned to this year's Elections and ask that every member of the public participate in the election process so we can have a strong hand in bringing Quesnel into the future while holding onto the strengths of our past that our ancestors have worked so hard to build this land.
