Ward 5 in the RM of Portage is no longer uncalled for. 

George Chandler -- a semi-retired farmer -- is jumping into the ring of RM councilor hopefuls running in the October elections.  He has his priorities mapped out, focusing on road repair and improving drainage. 

 

Chandler calls himself a man of action -- he's witnessed several disasters in the ward in which he says the RM failed to address. 

 

Chandler is involved in the farming community, being part of the Provincial Ploughing Association and having worked with 4H clubs among others. 

 

He's received much support within his community.
