John Cummins, leader of the BC Conservative Party, travelled to Fort St. John, Fort Nelson, Tumbler Ridge, Chetwynd, and Dawson Creek during the week of November 26th-30th.

Peats is a retired RCMP officer and former head of the Tumbler Ridge detachment, while Jackson is Crown Counsel in Dawson Creek.
The BC Conservative leader will fly into Fort St. John on the morning of Monday, November 26th, and spend the day meeting local officials and touring the Peace Valley OSB plant. Later, he’ll participate in a ‘Meet and Greet’ at Esquires Coffee House.
Cummins will remain in the Peace River North electoral district on Tuesday, flying into Fort Nelson for a noon-time ‘Meet and Greet’ at the Phoenix Theatre. In the early afternoon he’ll tour the Spectra Energy Gas Plant, before returning to Fort St. John.
The next day the BC Conservative leader will drive to Tumbler Ridge, and tour the Western Coal mine. Later, he’ll travel to Chetwynd for a public meeting sponsored by the Chetwynd Chamber of Commerce, to be held at the Pomeroy Hotel.
