Colin Bateman wants to build on the diversity of Smithers' town council. As a business-owner of the Aspen Inn and member (and previous president of the board) of the Chamber of Commerce, Bateman has experienced local economic trials by more than one point-of-view.

Bateman wants to encourage diversity on the council as well as helping the town "rebound from COVID". How he plans to do that? Tune in to CICK News on 93.9FM in Smithers and smithersradio.com everywhere else.
