Margot Middleton is the President and Manager of Day-to-Day Operations of Middleton Installations and Services, a family-owned business headquartered in Kamloops, and has been leading since 1987. She was awarded the Kamloops Chamber of Commerce Businessperson of the Year in 2021 and is the past Board Chair of Venture Kamloops. Having lived in Kamloops for more than 45 years, Margot understands the city from many perspectives: as a business owner, community member, volunteer, grandmother, and current Kamloops City Councillor. She is familiar with the city’s challenges and, most importantly, recognizes the opportunities ahead.

 

Middleton’s interest in public service began early, when she was elected as a 17-year-old to be a Kelowna ‘Teen Town’ Mayor. Over the past four years on Council, she has gained valuable experience in municipal governance, regional collaboration, committee work, and public decision-making. As she seeks re-election, Margot is focused on responsible governance, practical decision-making, long-term planning, and building a strong future for Kamloops. Her approach is steady, thoughtful, and rooted in listening, collaboration, and respect for process.
