About the Speakers:

Minister Rob Fleming

Serving as the MLA for North Vancouver-Lonsdale since May 2017, Bowinn is the Minister of State for Infrastructure. She is also a licensed Professional Engineer and certified Project Management Professional. As an MLA, Bowinn is particularly active on the issues of housing, transportation, child care, and climate action.

Bowinn's degree in civil engineering included a background in transportation engineering that serves her well in her efforts to improve transportation on the North Shore and throughout the Lower Mainland. In 2018, Bowinn launched and then led the Integrated North Shore Transportation Planning Project (INSTPP), which led to the region's first-ever rapid transit feasibility study and continues to guide regional transportation planning for all levels of government on the North Shore.

Bowinn also serves as the Parliamentary Secretary for TransLink and on several cabinets and parliamentary committees including Treasury Board, Housing Working Group, Select Standing Committee on Public Accounts, and Select Standing Committee on Crown Corporations. Prior to being elected MLA, she managed the terminal expansion and redevelopment projects at the Vancouver International Airport. She also holds a Master's degree from the UBC Sauder School of Business.
