Alistair Taylor

I have been the editor of the Campbell River Mirror since 1989 and have seen many changes come and go in the news industry – as well as in the city.

We take great pride in serving our community and acknowledge the vital service the newspaper and our website provides to our readers and advertisers. Away from the office, I consider myself an avid outdoors person and music lover and enjoy volunteering my time with Special Olympics, Scouts Canada and Rivercity Players.
