Re-electSaturday, October 17, 2026
Your trusted voice on council.
Fifteen years of listening, showing up, and getting practical things done for the people of Kelowna.
Honorary Campaign Chair
Lois Serwa
Long-time Kelowna volunteer and philanthropist. King Charles III Coronation Medal, 2024.
Lois is lending her name and her support to Mohini's re-election. The two were honoured together in 2024, among eleven Kelowna residents to receive the Coronation Medal for their service to the community.
Meet Mohini
Four times, Kelowna has elected Mohini Singh to City Council. Fifteen years in, she is known for doing the homework, showing up, and voting for what serves the people who already live here: more police officers and firefighters on the front line, rental housing that fits its neighbourhood, and a careful hand on residents' tax dollars.
Her service reaches well beyond the council table. In 2008 she founded the East Meets West Children's Foundation, still run entirely by volunteers, and she has given her time to the Kelowna Women's Shelter, the MS Society, the Cancer Centre of the Southern Interior and UBCO scholarship fundraising. British Columbia invested her in the Order of B.C. and Kelowna named her its Woman of the Year, and the recognition continues: in 2024 she received the King Charles III Coronation Medal, and in 2025 Kelowna Women in Business named her a Changemaker.
You will find her wherever Kelowna gathers, from Remembrance Day and Canada Day to Vaisakhi, Lunar New Year and Pride. She hosts the community podcast Chai and Chat with Mohini.

What Mohini will keep working on
Four things residents raise at every door, and the same four she has voted on, argued for, and been held to account on this term.
Housing people can afford
Growth has to work for the people who already live and work here: more rental and family-scale homes that fit their neighbourhood, not towers dropped where they don't belong.
Safer, stronger communities
Keep investing in policing so every neighbourhood has the officers and response times it can count on, and give firefighter staffing the same urgency.
A working local economy
Back the employers we already have and the sectors we need next, agriculture in particular, including housing for the seasonal workers who bring in the harvest.
The Lakes, the farmland, the natural areas
Protect Okanagan Lake, the Agricultural Land Reserve and our natural spaces so they are still here, intact, for the next generation.
This term, on the record
Council votes are public. Here are five that show how Mohini makes decisions, each with the news coverage so you can check.
Eleven more RCMP officers and eight more firefighters
Backed the 2025 and 2026 budgets that added them, and moved to add two more firefighters when Kelowna fell below the staffing average of comparable cities.
Castanet, Dec. 4, 2025Voted against a 35 per cent council pay increase
Told council that 35 per cent was too large an increase at this time, and voted no.
Global News, Apr. 8, 2024Yes to rental homes that fit, no to a tower that didn't
Backed 20 new rental homes on Lawson Avenue, and voted against the height variance for a 25-storey tower downtown that was out of scale for its block.
KelownaNow, Aug. 27, 2025 Daily Courier, May 15, 2025Housing for the workers who bring in the harvest
Supported a farm's application to house 40 seasonal workers on Belgo Road: "He is doing everything by the book. It would be wrong to refuse this."
Castanet, Aug. 17, 2026"We are the keepers of the public purse"
Voted 5 to 4 to withdraw Kelowna from the regional economic development commission, saying council has to be even more careful with residents' tax dollars.
Kelowna Capital News, Jul. 20, 2026What people are saying
Neighbours, community leaders and residents from across Kelowna on why they're voting to return Mohini to council.
She is a community-minded leader who puts the public interest ahead of special interests or single-issue agendas.
She leads with empathy and compassion. I've seen how hard she works for the people of Kelowna.
I served on Kelowna City Council for many years with Mohini. She's an excellent representative of her constituents, and she brings the farming community's perspective to the table.
She truly shows up. She takes the time to listen, to connect with people, and to support community organizations and residents from many different backgrounds.
I have known Mohini since 1989. Helping others without any prejudice is her nature, and that makes her a favourite among the people of Kelowna.
We have seen her willingness to listen, collaborate, connect with diverse voices, and support ideas that create real opportunities for people and businesses.
She has worked tirelessly for the betterment of our city, a strong, dedicated and effective councillor, and good for the entire community.
People want their leaders to talk with them, not at them.
