Daniel CHEUNG – Burnaby City Council Candidate

Daniel Cheung is a local business owner, former longshoreman executive, and decorated deep-sea captain holding a Canadian Master Mariner ticket. A Burnaby resident for over 10 years, Daniel is running for city
council to give citizens their voices back.


As a ship captain, I navigated by transparency, mutual responsibility, and protecting my crew. Right now, Burnaby’s City Council is acting as a rubber stamp for the Mayor and provincial agencies instead of standing up for taxpayers. When thousands opposed the Gilmore project, officials sat in silence.

NEIGHBORHOODS FIRST:

1.) End Loopholes: Require an open, 60-day notification and public town hall window for all provincial housing /shelter projects.
2.) Break the Silence: Force councilors to actively answer resident concerns during public sessions.
3.) Fair-Share Planning: Stop disproportionately concentrating supportive facilities in working-class Burnaby transit corridors.
4.) I answer only to the neighborhoods of Burnaby. Let us steer our city back to fairness.
