First elected in a by-election in 2008, and re-elected four times since, Spencer Chandra Herbert has deep roots in Vancouver’s vibrant West End community. As an MLA, Spencer has stood up for renters facing illegal evictions, worked to reduce homelessness by founding Vancouver’s Rent Bank and led the successful fight to explicitly protect transgender people in BC’s Human Rights Code.
Spencer knows how special the West End community is and how important it is to the people who live there. He considers it an honour to work with, and stand up for, West Enders and Coal Harbour residents everyday and fight for the issues that matter to them.
