CITY POLITICIAN
Corrigan comes out on top
Mayor Derek Corrigan has been consecutively re-elected to represent the City of Burnaby as mayor four times in a row. NOW readers recognize his impact and voted him Best City Politician. Corrigan was first elected to Burnaby City Council in 1987. “This year marks my 24th consecutive year as a member of Burnaby council, where I strive to bring the history and heritage of my two decades of public service to every important decision,” Corrigan says in his bio on the city’s website. Corrigan is – at times – an outspoken mayor
who doesn’t back away from saying what he thinks is best for the people of Burnaby. Corrigan was born in Vancouver and attended Sir Charles Tupper High School. After winning a scholarship to UBC, he was granted early admission to law school after three years of undergraduate study in political science and philosophy. He was called to the B.C. Bar in 1978, says the website. During his lengthy political career, Corrigan has served on numerous boards and committees at the local, regional and national levels, and been a member of various clubs that promote community service.
