Hello, my name is Wendy Lee Kerr

Focusing on sensible local solutions that keep our neighborhoods safe, our municipal budget balanced, and our community thriving for every generation.

Hello, my name is Wendy Lee Kerr, and I am running for City Council in Port Alberni. Having lived here for over 60 years, I love this town and its people. After graduating from ADSS, I spent 42 years working in various roles at our local hospital before retiring. My commitment to leadership began with my involvement in the local union and labour council, where I served as a Shop Steward,Secretary, Treasurer, Chairperson, and co-chair of the Occupational Health and Safety Committee. These experiences inspired me to run for city council in 2011, and I was successfully elected. While balancing a full-time career with council duties was challenging, the experience taught me a great deal about serving our community. I believe in lifelong learning. I returned to school at 55 and again at 60 and during my time at North Island College, I made the honour roll and was voted class valedictorian. Now, as a retiree, I have the time and dedication necessary to fully serve the taxpayers of Port Alberni.
