Another well-known 91大黄鸭 resident is vying for city council ahead of those who currently have a seat.

Former Global Okanagan news anchor Rick Webber made the announcement on an 鈥楨lect Rick Webber鈥� Facebook account Wednesday (Jul. 6) night.

鈥淚 thought I would pass this news along to my Facebook friends first. I have been considering this for a long time. With plenty of excitement (and some trepidation), I have decided to run for the position of councilor at 91大黄鸭 city hall this fall. I changed the name of this Facebook page and plan to use it as the campaign鈥檚 main social media outlet over the next few months.鈥�

Webber joined Global Okanagan in 1990 and retired in 2019. He had hinted then that he may run for city council. Webber landed his first media job in 1976 at a radio station in Prince Edward Island. He moved to B.C. in 1978 and worked at several radio and TV stations before landing at Global.
