Campaigns for council in Coquitlam typically cost around $20,000 to be competitive.

A lot of candidates lean on big cheques from people with major property interests—owners, CEOs, and investors who stand to gain from council decisions that approve their development projects.

Benjamin believes that’s a conflict-of-interest dynamic, so he’s committed to not taking that kind of money.

That means we have to raise about $20,000 entirely from ordinary residents, through lots of small donations:

• If the average donation is $50, that’s about 400 people.
  

• At $25, that’s about 800 people.
