im still reading through all your comments about the lack of accountability and its clear im not the only one feeling ignored by the current councillors. i have been reaching out to a few people behind the scenes to see how we can force a conversation on this ward system and will keep you posted.

we just hit a big milestone and the momentum is honestly wild. it feels like people are finally noticing that the current way things are run just isnt working for us anymore.

The ward system worked very well according to old timers in Surrey. Can we bring it back? Rather doubtful any modern day council would be in favour of it. But that should not stop us from asking for its return.
Surrey councillors do not care for the community because they do not belong to any ward. I have been through city hall and very disappointed the way these councillors are treating surrey residents.(Except couple of them)
A democratic ward system is the only way out of the mess that Surrey First has created in Surrey. The Most Dangerous and Deadly City in Canada. 20 Vilent Crrimes a Day. A Sexual Assault including Rape every day of the year. A level of Violent Crime that is double Seattly and Portland and on par with some of the worst cities in the US. Without a Ward System the big money developer controlled machine will continue to run wild and the citizens will continue to suffer. Surrey First has masterminded and orchestrated the current horror story and until we have a ward system the Citizens will never be able to wrestle Surrey back from the Developers and Speculators who own the mayor and council and run the city.
As a nurse who was born and raised in Surrey, I agree 100 % with all the issues listed in this petition. We need to get together to save our community and create a better future for the generations to come! Its time to come together to save our community!
In Ward System Councillors will be able high light the residents problems more effectively. At present 5 councillors are from south surrey / white rock area so more developed than Newton.
no more slap on the wrists, hard punishment for any crime
Safety should be first

bring in a ward system and make councilors accountable..the current system does nothing but allow council to defer interest in issues without repercussions. its archaic
