In a statement sent to this guide on September 24, Sikora describes university studies in psychology and political science, military-police service, volunteer work with Delta Police and crisis support, and ownership of The Range in Langley. He also describes a technology patent for recovering hazardous metals from shooting-range berms. These are his background claims, not independently audited achievements.

His published campaign platform proposes reverse-osmosis filtration at schools and a community site, independent water testing, evening council meetings and citizen advisory committees.

His allegations about existing water quality and past town leadership have not been independently established by this guide. The legal feasibility and costs of his proposed municipal recall process have not been verified.
