🚦 Let’s Talk Traffic - Advance voting is this July 9, 2025 Sooke Municipal Hall
Every candidate in this upcoming Sooke 2025 by-election has acknowledged traffic as an issue - and that matters. But in my view, my opinion, only one has offered detailed, actionable plans that reflect both Sooke’s internal road challenges and the need for provincial collaboration to solve congestion on Highway 14:
➡️ Herb Haldane
A home building contractor and former two-term councillor, Herb’s experience with infrastructure, costing, and process sets him apart. He’s the only candidate who has spoken in-depth about:
🔗 Smart Roads and Better Planning https://electherbhaldane.ca/smart-roads-better-planning
🔗 Throup Road Connector Plan https://electherbhaldane.ca/developing-a-practical-affordable-plan-to-build-the-throup-road-connector
Herb’s approach reflects real-world experience and understanding of how both municipal and provincial partnerships are required to move traffic smoothly.

🙌 A heartfelt thank you to all the candidates in this by-election. Stepping forward to serve your community is no small feat. You’ve brought forward important voices, young voices, voices focused on reconciliation, official community plan, housing, and transparency. I hope to see every one of you run in next year’s full election.
This election for me is about traffic. Let's get it moving. Get out and VOTE! Encourage others to as well. It's UP TO YOU!
At the end of the day, this vote in this by-election 2025 is about what kind of leadership Sooke needs right now.
