Salmon Arm City Council · Vote October 17, 2026

Common sense. Getting things done.

Aaron Canart is a Salmon Arm husband, father of four and businessman running for city council to bring a sound business approach to the biggest projects in our city's history.

In his words

Why I'm running

For quite some time I've wanted to get involved in the community in a meaningful way and put my experience in business to work. Over the next four years the city will take on a number of significant projects, and I've grown increasingly concerned about the vitality of our downtown — safety, security, comfort and parking.

This is the platform, and the time, to step forward.
