Pickering-Brooklin Conservative EDA (PBCEDA) Board of Directors

Our PBCEDA Board of Directors is comprised of dedicated Conservative volunteers committed to promoting the values and principles of the Conservative Party of Canada in the Pickering-Brooklin riding. Our EDA works closely with our community, advocating for the issues that matter most and supporting local candidates in their campaigns for public office.

We are led by an exceptional group of volunteers who serve on our board of directors. These individuals are committed to serving their community and working tirelessly to advance the conservative cause. Each brings a wealth of knowledge, experience, and passion to their roles, and we are grateful for their leadership and dedication.

We are proud of the hard work and dedication of our board of directors, and we are confident that with their guidance, the PBCEDA will continue to be a strong and effective advocate for conservative values in the Pickering-Brooklin riding.
