A BETTER WAY

Stephanie Harper

Experienced, Grounded. Ready to bring balance and accountability back to the board table.
As AREA I grows and evolves, we need practical leadership that protects what makes this place special while making sure families, workers, and seniors can continue to live and thrive here.

I’m stepping forward to serve CVRD Area I — Youbou and Meade Creek in West Cowichan. With over 25 years in development, construction, and land use, and senior-level experience in private business, I bring practical, real-world leadership to local government — with a clear commitment to our people, our values, and our future.

Why I’m Asking for Your Vote

There is a better way.
For too long, our rural voices have been pushed aside by agendas and bias. It’s time to listen, ask the tough questions — and get back to representing the people who live here.

Committed and ready to work for AREA I — Youbou and Meade Creek.
I’ll listen, ask the right questions, and do the work.
