Adam Saab was born in Smithers, grew up in the BC interior, and now lives in Victoria BC. He learned the importance of being politically active and the value of public service at an early age. His mother was a member of city council in Northern BC, and his father has been a district 83 school board trustee for 15 years. His father also ran for the BC Liberals in 1991, but has since become a staunch supporter of the Green Party.
As a Green, Saab is dedicated to responsible governance through sound fiscal and environmental management. He has committed himself to positive change that respects the long-standing values of British Columbians, and he believes that the best interests of all will be served through more cooperation and less partisanship in government.
Saab attended the University of British Columbia in Kelowna and graduated in 2008 with a double major in Philosophy and Psychology. During his studies, he spent summers studying the neuro-physiology of memory formation at the Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute in Toronto.
Upon completing his schooling, Saab moved to Victoria to spend more time with his family, and he has truly become a member of the Victoria community. He is active in local politics and passionate about the many unique issues facing the citizens of Victoria. Saab's recent bid for federal office during the 2008 general election led him to understand that most of the issues that concern the people of Victoria are under provincial jurisdiction.
Saab is active in Victoria as a hard-working and professional political organizer, and he has generated more financial and volunteer support than the Green Party has ever seen in this riding. As an energetic, thoughtful, and passionate candidate, Saab is committed to principled politics and practical solutions. He believes our prosperity and well-being will develop synergistically through a strong economy and a healthy environment. He is working hard for the citizens of Victoria, and is dedicated to building a government that is prepared for the challenges of the next generation.
