The Prince George city councillor discusses homelessness, drug policy and cost overruns at city hall as he makes a bid to be elected as the Liberal candidate for Cariboo-Prince George.

Garth Frizzell wants to make the leap from municipal to federal politics as the Liberal candidate for Cariboo-Prince George

In 2014, I was privileged to be elected to my third term as Councillor in Prince George.   I first came to Prince George in 1996, planning to stay for two years to get my Masters’ degree at UNBC.  After getting the degree in International Studies, I didn’t want to leave.  I met my wife Sue, we started our family, bought a house, and spent ten years building an award-winning technology company. After ten years in business, I accepted a new position building links between the University of Northern BC and the business community.  By then, my volunteer time in the business community had led to 5 years on the Chamber of Commerce, including as its President.  I also served 6 years appointed to the Province of BC Small Business Roundtable.  I now teach entrepreneurship and economics at the College of New Caledonia Council:  Chair, Finance and Audit Committee for the City of Prince George 2nd Vice-President, Federation of Canadian Municipalities  Founder and member of International Students’ Welcoming Committee Regional District Alternate Director  Past Volunteer Work  Board Member, Decentralized Energy Association of Canada Board Member, Northern Interior Mining Group Games Time Information Technology Second-in-Command, Canada Winter Games volunteer Past Chair, Prince George Society for the Employment of Persons with Disabilities.
