Kane Tse (he/him) is a parent, healthcare worker, and president of the Queensborough Residents Association. Neighbours know him as someone who steps in when things go sideways, like during a long winter power outage, when he helped connect residents with warm meals and safe places to go. While he’s lived in major cities across the continent and Metro Vancouver, it’s New West that holds his heart.
“I love the people. New Westminster is the first place I've lived in the Lower Mainland where I have really gotten to know my neighbours and worked together with other people in my community.”
Kane has spent over 20 years working at BC Cancer, including work on DNA sequencing to support patient care. He has also served as president of the Health Sciences Association, one of the Province's largest unions. These experiences have taught him how to explain complicated topics in straightforward ways, so everyone is included in the thinking behind key strategies.
He is particularly focused on making sure Queensborough residents feel represented at the council table. He wants to strengthen connections between neighbourhoods, improve transportation and public safety, and encourage more people to take part in civic life.
“I hope to bring a strong analytical approach to decision-making, along with a commitment to making sure the process is transparent for residents.
