Silas White withdraws candidacy for Mayor

Councillor Silas White who was the lone candidate vying for the position of Mayor of Gibsons won’t be running in this year’s municipal election.

After a successful mayoral campaign launch that was attended by more than 100 local residents, the decision for White not to run for Mayor of Gibsons was made public at last night’s (Tues) council meeting.

White says he’s stepping down for this election due to personal and health reasons.

White suffered a concussion on July 1st after falling off his bike. He says he was told by his doctors to stop working, and although he did slow down, he continued working and he’s feeling the effects of that.

The nomination period for the Town of Gibsons will begin once again today (September 19th) and it will end as of 4:00 PM on Monday, September 24th.
