About John Rustad

John was born and raised in Prince George, married his wife Kim in 1995, and has spent his entire life living in Northern British Columbia. However, in the early 2000’s, frustrated with the direction the province was headed, John had to decide between leaving for greener pastures or sticking around. Thankfully, he decided to stick around and in so doing, decided to fight for BC.

John was first elected as a school board trustee to SD-57 and then elected as MLA in 2005 for the riding of Prince George–Omineca. Later, after riding redistribution, John was re-elected in the riding of Nechako Lakes, and he has served there ever since.

Prior to being elected, John worked in the forestry industry for more than 20 years. He formed a technology company, Western Geographic Information Systems Inc, a consulting service for the resource sector, which helped to create opportunities, jobs and sustained growth for forestry, bringing prosperity to his community and the province.

After becoming an independent MLA, John joined the Conservative Party of BC because he realized that he must continue to fight and that he can’t do it alone. On March 24, 2023, John Rustad announced his intention to seek the leadership of the Conservative Party of BC, and on March 31, 2023, he was acclaimed leader.

John will join us for a discussion of the Conservative Party of BC’s take on a range of topics of interest to our members, including healthcare, personal freedoms, and what the future holds should the Conservatives form the next government. 

Come prepared to listen, learn and ask questions.
