Biography
Krista Loughton is President of the Canadian Capital Cities Organization (CCCO) executive committee and is committed to maintaining a well-managed city that meets the needs of all residents and businesses. Her vision for Victoria is “A City of Communities” — a city with walkable, accessible and vibrant neighbourhood villages. She is passionate about increasing housing affordability and implementing innovative solutions to alleviate homelessness.
An award-winning documentary filmmaker and business owner, Krista has spent her career raising issues with all levels of government. Her first feature documentary, Us and Them, made an impact by showing how early childhood trauma correlates to poverty, homelessness and addiction. The film has screened thousands of times throughout North America, including on Parliament Hill and at the British Columbia legislature.
Krista holds a Bachelor of Arts (Specialist) degree in Geography, making the Dean’s Honour list twice. She is set to release a new film in 2023 and lives in Fernwood with her dog, Jedha.
