Doug McCallum runs for Surrey Mayor in 2026

CTV is reporting that "Former Surrey mayor Doug McCallum has announced he’s running for the city’s top job once again, this time promising to freeze property taxes for four years if elected." 

"McCallum has been mayor twice before - from 1996 to 2005, then 2018 to 2022 - and has continued weighing in on local politics since being defeated by Mayor Brenda Locke during the last municipal election." 

"At a news conference, McCallum touted some of the projects approved under his previous tenure, including the city’s SkyTrain extension and Bear Creek Stadium. “I love this city,” McCallum said. “And I have spent my life fighting to make sure Surrey gets everything it deserves.” 

"He’s once again leading the Safe Surrey Coalition, alongside incumbent councillors Doug Elford and Mandeep Nagra. McCallum said the rest of the party’s slate will be revealed within the next six weeks."

He once again nails it on all the issues. I completely support him and the Safe Surrey Coalition for 2026. Sky train to Newton not LRT. It's really a no brainer. McCallum is not a Neo Con tax and spend Junket Queen like Godzilla and Surrey Worst. Like Rocky Balboa, Doug McCallum's not done yet.

  1. Doug not bad but Linda is better for jobs and future growth in the city.

    1. AYFKM? That is absolutely delusional. Linda Annis is part of Surrey First which was and is run by Dianne Watts the tax and spend Neo Con who wanted to toll every bridge already paid for to raise money for her ballooning budget. Linda Annis has gone on record pledging to revert to LRT over Skytran. That is a very dark delusion that I could never ever support. Anyone instead of Annis. Even Brenda Locke.
