We had the privilege of speaking with MLA Anderson, Member of the Legislative Assembly for Nanaimo–Lantzville and Parliamentary Secretary for Transit. Our conversation covered his leadership in environmental and transit policy, from Nanaimo’s first Transportation Master Plan to his vision for a resilient port strategy that strengthens BC’s economy. We also explored his trailblazing role as one of only four Black MLAs in the province's history and his remarkable path as a young leader in government, beginning with his election to Nanaimo City Council at just 20 and continuing to the legislature today. Stay tuned until the end to hear which of the five instruments he has mastered he would choose to play for the rest of his life!
