Cindy Beedie
Executive Director, Beedie Foundation
““I visited multiple municipalities with my idea for a unique housing complex for single mothers fleeing violence. Burnaby was the only one to say yes right away. That’s Mike. He found the land and championed this project, and thanks to him, 56 mothers and their children now have somewhere safe to live.””
Todd Schierling
President, BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Association
“Mike never stopped being a fire fighter. I credit him with delivering on a promise — the Burn Fund Centre and the HomeAway Program, supporting hundreds of burn survivors, fire fighters, and their families. He brings that same instinct to City Hall. He’s the real thing.”
Laura Ballance
Longtime BC Communications Professional
“I met Mike through my work supporting firefighter families after a death in the service. He showed up for those families in a meaningful way during the most tragic time in their lives. Burnaby gets that same strong, thoughtful and compassionate leader as Mayor. I’m proud to support Mike.”
Michael Hillman
Former Burnaby City Councillor and Vice Chair Fraser Health
“I was with Mike in his first campaign, and later sat with him at the council table. He is a leader who listens, seeks a solid direction, decides and he delivers — on public safety and on the community infrastructure our city needs. He has my support and my vote.”
Jonah van Driesum
President, Young British Columbians for Better Governance
“Mike Hurley has been and continues to be one of the strongest voices for young people and their needs across Metro Vancouver. We are proud to endorse him for re-election.”
Janet Andrews
Secretary-Treasurer, New Westminster & District Labour Council
“The delegates and affiliates at the New Westminster & District Labour Council appreciate Mike’s hard work on behalf of working people and families. Mike came up through the fire hall, so he understands what working people need from a city — decent jobs, services that work, and a council that listens. Burnaby has been better for it. We need him for another term.”
Garth Evans
Lawyer, Former Burnaby City Councillor and Director of Progressive Housing Society
“I’ve seen how hard housing and homelessness are to move on at the municipal level. Mike has been willing to do the work rather than talk about it. I’d like to see him re-elected.”
Darlene Gering
Former CEO, Burnaby Board of Trade
“Burnaby has always been a place where business and community have worked collaboratively on issues, finding innovative solutions that benefit all the people that live, work and play in our beautiful city. Mike has demonstrated these values through his leadership and I am confident in his capacity to lead our city.”
Bonney Rempel

“As a community partner for over 25 years, I support Mike Hurley for another term as Mayor of Burnaby. He leads with integrity, sets realistic expectations, follows through on his commitments, and consistently delivers on what he promises.”
Ava Turner
CEO, George Derby
“Mike has visited George Derby many times, and every time he makes time for our residents, veterans and seniors alike. He shows up for the people who built this city. I’m proud to support him.”
Robin Dhir
Member, Burnaby Parks, Recreation, & Culture Committee
“Under Mike’s leadership, Burnaby has built community centres and ice rinks that residents and kids use every day. That kind of delivery makes life easier for families here, and it’s why I want to see him keep going.”
Patrice Pratt
Former President of BC-NDP, Former Chair of Vancity, Former Chair of BC United Way
“I’ve known Mike for a long time and worked to get him elected in 2018. He has done a great job as Mayor. Burnaby is in good hands with him.”

David Jones

“It is my pleasure to endorse Mike Hurley for re-election. Mike fights for Burnaby and continues to work hard to get the provincial government to reverse their decision to delay the redevelopment of Burnaby Hospital.”
Doug Petti
President, International Association of Fire Fighters Local 323
“I’ve known and worked alongside Mike for more than 15 years. He’s a good, compassionate and empathetic man who understands what it takes to keep Burnaby safe. More importantly, he stands behind the people who do that work every day. He understands the challenges they face, and he’s always been there to support them. Mike has my full support.”
