Fact check · Running for Mayor (incumbent)

Teunis Westbroek Website

We couldn’t find a campaign website for Teunis Westbroek, so there is no website to fact check.

Teunis Westbroek, the current Mayor of Qualicum Beach, is running for re-election in the October 17, 2026 local election. We fact check the websites of Qualicum Beach candidates the same way we check their questionnaire answers and flyers: every policy and money claim, tested against Town of Qualicum Beach records. As of September 24, 2026, we couldn’t find a campaign website for Teunis Westbroek. The Town’s official candidate list gives websites for the candidates who have one, and lists none for him.

We have checked what Teunis Westbroek has put in writing this campaign: his answers to the QB Insights candidate questionnaire and his campaign flyer. Both are below.

If Teunis Westbroek has a campaign website we missed, send the link to facts@LetThemEatGolf.ca and we will check it.

His record in office, including the defamation lawsuit he settled and his 2021 censure, is on our Teunis Westbroek page.
