Rob Botterell, Naacałuk

Not sure where to start? Here are some questions people often ask.

  • Our office helps you navigate provincial government — sorting out questions or problems with programs, policies, and benefits like ICBC, healthcare, disability assistance, and housing. When an issue needs it, we contact ministries directly on your behalf. Beyond casework, we bring constituent concerns into the legislature through statements, petitions, and direct questions to government. You don't need to have voted for Rob, or any particular party, to reach out — this office is here for everyone in Saanich North and the Islands.

  • Your MLA represents you provincially — health care, education, ICBC, housing, and BC-specific programs. Your MP handles federal matters like EI, passports, and immigration. If you're not sure which one you need, reach out anyway — we'll point you the right way.

  • Yes — this is one of the most common reasons people contact us. If you're stuck on an ICBC claim, a disability assistance application, a healthcare access issue, or something similar, our office can advocate on your behalf.

  • Phone or email to start (make sure to include if you live in or outside the riding) we schedule an in-person meeting from there.

  • Email, call, or write (make sure to include where you live in the riding) — all input gets read and logged, and it shapes the questions we raise in the legislature. For big or time-sensitive issues, a short personal note goes further than a form letter.

  • Sign up for the newsletter, or follow along on Facebook and Instagram for updates between issues.

  • Appointments only — we don't accept walk-ins. E-mail to set up a time, and we'll get you on the calendar! Book an appointment.

    If it's an emergency — a safety risk to you or someone else — call 911 first. For urgent but non-emergency issues that can't wait for a scheduled meeting, call the office and let us know it's urgent — we'll do our best to fit you in sooner. Office number: +1 250-655-5600

  • Yes — send details on the date, audience, and topic, and we'll do our best to make it work around the legislative calendar. Request a speaking appearance
