“Long before Matt was elected to City Council, Matt was active, engaged and willing to do the practical work needed to make neighbourhoods stronger,” said Murray Rankin, former Victoria MLA and BC minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation. “Since his election to Victoria City Council, Matt has brought that same energy and community focus to City Hall: advancing housing, supporting public spaces and local culture, and working to build a safer, more liveable Victoria. I’m pleased to endorse Matt Dell for re-election to Victoria City Council on October 17.”

“In my 35 years of producing concerts, festivals and dances in Victoria, I have never seen a more steadfast advocate for the arts at City Hall than Matt Dell. Matt has been a true champion for Victoria’s arts and music communities. He helped the city save Hermann’s Jazz Club—one of our most important cultural assets—and has worked tirelessly to make Victoria a more vibrant place. His voice on City Council is invaluable, and I fully support his re-election.”
