Rob Miyashiro
Principled. Proven. Progressive.
I’m Rob Miyashiro and I am seeking your support for the NDP nomination in Lethbridge-West.
With over 40 years at the front lines of public service delivery in and around Lethbridge, I know how hard it can be for families and individuals who fall through the cracks in the system. I have unique experience developing, resourcing, and delivering programs for disadvantaged groups in and around our city. I know how to navigate provincial administration to get tangible outcomes for Lethbridge families and individuals in need.
Having won two city-wide elections for Council, I know how to win in Lethbridge. I am ready to bring my experience, my ability to get results, and my passion to help Naheed Nenshi bring good government back to Alberta.
To learn more about my background and the qualifications that make me uniquely ready to represent you, check out my About Rob page.
Check out my Support for Rob page to see why two former Mayors, a former City Manager, and other active community volunteers and organizers are supporting my bid to take on the UCP in Lethbridge-West.
Shannon Phillips, 3-Time Alberta NDP Lethbridge-West MLA, supports Rob
"Our family is pleased to endorse Rob Miyashiro for the nomination as the Lethbridge West NDP candidate in the upcoming byelection. I have full faith in Rob’s work ethic, his values, and his roots in our community.
I am supporting Rob for the nomination because I know he will focus relentlessly on three things.
One, fixing health care in Lethbridge. Rob will make sure we have new clinics, more doctors, and are training and investing in people and the hospital to better meet our health care needs.
Two, protecting our CPP retirement. We know Danielle Smith has a plan to take away our retirement security. She’s so far been too chicken to have a referendum on it, and face the voters. This byelection is a good opportunity for voters to send the message - Hands off our CPP.
Three, I know Rob will focus on the real priorities of folks here in Lethbridge. We know we need a strong voice for our community, otherwise we get left behind. Without an NDP MLA, we get fewer schools, crumbing infrastructure, no investment in our post-secondaries, and of course a collapsing health care system. We need someone who understands what our city needs and is not afraid to fight for it."
