Protect the View Royal We Love
Ryan Painter is running for Mayor because he believes View Royal should stay a community where people can build a good life, raise a family, and trust that local government is working for them.
View Royal is home. That is where this starts.
For Ryan, this election matters.
View Royal is home. It is where daily life happens: school drop-offs, commutes, local parks, neighbours who look out for one another. Families and seniors are trying to keep up with rising costs and still find time to enjoy the community around them. Ryan understands that what happens at Town Hall shapes it all.
That is why practical, transparent local leadership matters.
Ryan has spent years working in public life, community leadership, and governance. He has served in elected office, chaired the Greater Victoria School Board, worked with organizations that support people and communities, and built a career focused on accountability, clear communication, and delivering results.
Keep what people value. Plan responsibly for what comes next.
Ryan is not running to make View Royal something it is not.
He is running to help protect what people value most about this community while planning responsibly for what comes next.
That means keeping View Royal livable, green, safe, and financially responsible. It means respecting the character of neighbourhoods while making room for thoughtful growth where it makes sense.
It means taking traffic, transportation, infrastructure, flood protection, public safety, and community amenities seriously because those issues shape daily life.
Ryan also believes local government should feel closer to people. More open. More respectful. More accountable. Residents should not have to fight to be heard or wonder how decisions are being made. They should know their voice matters.
Protect the View Royal We Love
Ryan is running to bring practical leadership, honest conversation, and a strong sense of community to Town Hall.
If you believe View Royal deserves thoughtful growth, responsible decisions, and a mayor who will listen, join the campaign.
