ABOUT THE SPEAKERS

Kevin Falcon, MLA for Vancouver-Quilchena and BC United Leader

Kevin Falcon was born and raised on the North Shore and he went to University at SFU. Falcon was elected to be the MLA for Surrey-Cloverdale in 2001, a position he held until 2013. When he was first elected, Falcon was one of the youngest MLAs to serve in cabinet. In his twelve years at the cabinet table, Falcon held a number of substantial roles including Deputy Premier, Minister of Finance, Minister of Transportation, Minister of Health and Minister of Deregulation.

As Transportation Minister, he oversaw the completion of many major projects including the Canada Line, Sea to Sky Highway upgrades, Kicking Horse Canyon Bridge and the new Port Mann Bridge. During his time as Health Minister, BC was recognized as a leader in wait time reduction with a 35% decrease in prescription drug costs. After leaving politics, Falcon took on the role as Executive Vice President for Anthem Capital and served on the boards of several non-profits including Canuck Place, Lions Gate Hospital Foundation and the Street-to-home Foundation, an organization working to house the homeless on the Downtown Eastside. He currently lives in North Vancouver with wife Jessica and two daughters, Josephine and Rose, and his cats Lucky and Feather.
