ELIAS ISHAK, INDEPENDENT

 

IN HIS OWN WORDS:

“I’m a 24-year-old, second-generation Canadian. My family immigrated here during the Lebanese Civil War. I grew up here and want to make a difference.”

 

WE ASKED

We asked each of the candidates four questions, with a 30-word limit on answers.  Here’s what Ishak said:

 

BIGGEST SUCCESS IN LIFE?

There’s nothing remarkable that comes to mind. I’ve learned so much from so many people, and I’ve always stayed true to myself. I think, really, that’s my biggest success.

 

BIGGEST FAILURE OR REGRET IN LIFE?

I think so much about the future of humanity and so little about my own material interests. In conventional terms, that has made me a complete and absolute failure.

 

WHY I WOULD MAKE A GREAT MLA

I intend to be more than just an MLA. Our new constituency office would be the most wonderful part! The revolution will begin here, among us; not in Victoria.
