Your Next True and Strong Voice

I`m running to be your city councillor because like you, I`m tired of watching our beloved city falling behind. Join me as we bring the common sense back at city hall.

Avinash Soochit - Candidate for City Council

About Me

I was born on the island of Mauritius, the land of the extinct dodo bird. I moved to Edmonton with my parents 20 years ago in 2005 and I have lived in Ward Karhiio and in the same community of Summerside for 20 years.

I have established deep roots in the city which is growing exponentially. I am running for city council because our city needs a leader who listens, who cares and who will act for the common good of edmontonians.

Only in Edmonton can someone start from where I begin in 2005, got to the stage of representing Canada at the second International Forum on human rights in 2006 in France, to opening a family business in 2021, and winning an award as young entrepreneur during Black History Month in February 2025.

Everyday, families are struggling to make ends meet because Edmonton is becoming an expensive city to live in. The city budget keeps going bust every year because:

  1. 1. City council can`t balance the budget due to misuse of taxpayers money.
  2. 2. City councillors have lost their common sense and are not acting for the common good of edmontonians.

On October 20th. I`m ready to be your next true and strong voice at City Hall, working for the common good of all edmontonians.
