CHILLIWACK – Chilliwack Councillor Jason Lum, one of four mayoral candidates in this Saturday’s municipal election, is rejecting unsubstantiated claims levelled against him by one of his opponents about his previous business activities. The Conservative Electors Association sent a statement to news media outlets Wednesday (Oct. 14) claiming that Councillor’s Lum past business dealings somehow disqualify him to serve as Chilliwack’s next mayor. The Conservative Party of Chilliwack claims it’s demanding an independent investigation into alleged conflicts of interest involving Lum, and claimed that Lum voted to appoint directors of city-owned corporations that did business with Myriad, a company he was once involved in. One of his opponents, Surrey resident Martina Rosini, is quoted in the Conservative Electors Association news release pushing for an independent inquiry. In response, Lum wrote on social media that he’s rejecting the latest accusations from a candidate and an organization that are not based in Chilliwack. He is asking Rosini to substantiate her claims. “I believe in accountability. I believe in transparency.
