About
Surrey Connect
We’re Building for Surrey
Surrey Connect is a municipal political party born from a simple conversation at a kitchen table. Founded in January 2020 by two city councillors and a bylaw officer who believed Surrey deserved to be governed better, what started as a small group of concerned residents grew into a movement built on three things: listening to Surrey residents, advocating for what they need, and delivering results.
Born from the Community
Founded by people who live, work, and raise their families here, this movement grew out of a shared frustration with back-door decisions and a lack of accountability at city hall. They ran on a simple promise: restore focus, fairness, and honest leadership to Surrey. On October 15, 2022, Surrey residents answered. Brenda Locke was elected Mayor and the team secured 4 of 8 council seats, more than any other party.
Why We Are Running Again
The work is not finished. Since 2022 Surrey Connect has delivered results that Surrey families can see and feel but there is still more to do. We are running again because this city deserves a team that shows up, follows through, and never stops fighting for the people who call Surrey home. That is not a slogan. That is the reason we got into this in the first place.
What We Stand For
Surrey Connect is guided by a clear set of values that shape every decision we make and every position we take.
Every policy, every vote, every decision starts with one question: is this good for the people of Surrey? Not for developers, not for special interests — for residents.
Surrey Connect believes in open government. We commit to publishing clear reports, holding regular town halls, and being honest with residents even when the news isn't good.
Surrey is growing fast. We support growth that is planned responsibly, with the infrastructure, transit, schools, and green space that growing communities need.
Safe neighbourhoods are the foundation of a livable city. Surrey Connect is committed to fully funding public safety and giving residents confidence in their community.
Surrey Connect will manage taxpayer money with discipline and transparency. No waste. No vanity projects. Every dollar spent should deliver clear value to residents.
