HARMAN Bhangu, a small business owner, is the B.C. Conservative candidate for Surrey South.
The other candidates in the riding are Pauline Greaves (NDP), Elenore Sturko (BC Liberals) and Simran Sarai (BC Greens).
Bhangu states on his webpage that he is honoured to be a first-generation Canadian. He adds: “Harman was born in Surrey Memorial Hospital to an immigrant family who sacrificed their past lives for the liberty and freedoms of our great nation. Surrey is Harman’s home. This beautiful city needs a representative who understands the unique issues and needs of its residents while fighting to bring back common sense to British Columbia.”
According to his webpage: “Through Harman’s professional life, he has understood how government waste and increased taxes have made it tougher to live your day-to-day life. For the past fifteen years, Harman has worked in heavy-load trucking where he handles operations and bidding for contracts as an aggregate hauler.
“The pavement we walk on and the amenities we enjoy were built using materials hauled by people like Harman.
“A life-long sports enthusiast, Harman has learnt many life lessons on the field. He has spent hundreds of hours both as a player and on the sidelines where he coaches minor league football. Sports have taught Bhangu the importance of teamwork. In the same way he helps his team win, he is fighting for you in Surrey South.
“Surrey South deserves better than what is offered. The Bhangu family knows how difficult it is to find accessible healthcare, revealing how severely the system is failing. If elected, fixing the holes in the healthcare system is a top priority. Secondly, filling up a tank of gas shouldn’t require taking out a loan. Canadian energy is the backbone of our nation and should be attainable and affordable for the average Canadian.
“For his success, Harman credits his beautiful wife Courtney and his two young children. As a father, Harman understands the pressures faced by young families and will work to reduce your burden as an MLA.”
