Labeling others as angry while consistently displaying it herself is textbook projection.

This is a councillor with a documented pattern of showing contempt for residents asking legitimate questions about how their tax dollars are spent—while openly criticizing the public’s right to participate in civic decision-making.

Dale Bass expects respect without extending it, and that kind of conduct has no place in someone elected to represent the public.

As for Councillor Bass’s claim that concerned residents “have absolutely no idea how municipal government works”—anyone familiar with how City Hall functions would recognize that KCU’s work reflects a clear understanding, supported by facts, informed perspectives and experience.

Kamloops continues to elect the same circle of familiar voices—people connected through politics, media, and influence—while expecting different results. That cycle protects the status quo—not the people it’s supposed to serve.

Better decisions don’t come from the same closed loop—they come from candidates who value accountability and transparency—and voters who insist on both.

If people want an affordable, sustainable, and well-run community, that cycle needs to be broken.
