Meet the Candidate: Hugh English
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Hugh English hopes his experience in the community will resonate with voters on October 16th.
English is best known in Medicine Hat for his work with non-profit groups, including the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, Big Brothers and Big Sisters, and the Canadian Red Cross. He has also served on the Palliser Health Board. This is his first time seeking election at the municipal level.
“It’s certainly something I’ve thought about for some time,” he said. “In speaking with some people in the community, some people have been encouraging, saying ‘you should run.’ I guess the timing seemed to be right, personally.”
“I think that my experience, both work-wise, and my community involvement, are relevant to the duties as councillor.”
