About David Graham

I have lived and worked on Denman since 1993, other than four years living in Courtenay in order to give ourselves a break from being the Denman Island Bakers and also to make travelling to high school easier for our two boys. I ran for Islands Trust in 2005. I was elected and ran two more times, the third term as a member of the Executive. Living in a cooperative has given me a deep sense of commitment to the land and the people I share our forest with. Running again simply seemed the right thing to do once again.

About Sam Borthwick

Sam Borthwick is serving his first term as a Denman Island Trustee. Sam brings a background in community service and facilitation, ranging from event and festival logistics; coordinating and driving for the community bus service; to many varied facets of creative and technical life behind the curtain in the performing arts. As well as serving as Trustee, Sam coordinates the burgeoning Denman Island Bus Service, is the Head Technician for the Halls on Denman, and facilitates a variety of youth and after-school programs. He, his partner, and their two giant cats are grateful to rent on Denman Island.
