“Local government works best when communities work together, and I’ve seen Alton make that a priority at the SCRD. He brings Sechelt’s perspective to the table, while also recognizing that we are part of a larger region, and that our decisions affect our neighbours. He is prepared to listen, challenge ideas when necessary, and then work collaboratively toward a practical solution. I value that approach and believe it is the kind of leadership our Sunshine Coast communities deserve, and Alton has demonstrated he can deliver.”

SCRD Director Area E - Elphinstone
“Over the eight years I've worked with Alton at the SCRD I have been consistently impressed by him -- his integrity, his intelligence, his practical common sense, and his kindness. He's been a pleasure to work with, especially when we disagree, because he always has good reasons, and our discussions lead to better decisions.
It's easy to say that we should all work together more, but it's super difficult to collaborate well inside a political structure that feeds divisiveness. Alton excels at bringing people together to build solutions.”

“I’m proud to personally endorse Alton Toth for Mayor of Sechelt.
I’ve come to know Alton as someone who genuinely cares about our community. He listens, works hard, brings people together, and believes economic development should create good local jobs, support local businesses, and build opportunity for everyone.
Most importantly, Alton leads with integrity, respect and heart. He believes there is far more about Sechelt that unites us than divides us.
That’s the kind of leadership Sechelt needs, and why Alton has my full support for Mayor.”

“Today, I am proud to announce that I am endorsing Alton Toth for Mayor of Sechelt. The last eight years, serving as a District of Sechelt Council member and time on the SCRD Board has prepared him for this challenging role. His strong critical thinking skills are outstanding, demonstrating his ability to analyze complex data, weigh options, assess risks and make informed decisions that serve the best interest of our community. He understands the budgeting process and comprehends the long-term taxation and budget consequences of financial proposals and decisions.
Alton embraces the value of building strong relationships and has built mutually respectful relationships with our team, with staff, with the greater community, with our neighbors the Shishalh Nation and all levels of government, municipally, federally, and provincially.
He is deeply rooted in Sechelt and is devoted to this community and in a time where compassionate and conscientious leadership is more vital than ever, I hope you will consider joining me in voting for Alton Toth, as Mayor of Sechelt.”
