WP:BLP of a politician, not properly referenced as passing WP:NPOL. As always, mayors are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to be shown to have significant reliable source coverage enabling us to write substantive content about their political impact: specific things they did, specific projects they spearheaded, specific effects their leadership had on the development of the city, and on and so forth.
As written, however, this is mainly just background biographical trivia that has nothing to do with establishing notability, and features absolutely none of the type of content that an article about a mayor actually needs to show -- and for sourcing, it's citing a mix of run of the mill verification of his election victories and primary sourcing that isn't support for notability at all, with absolutely none of the ongoing "in office" coverage that's required.
Chilliwack is a large enough city that its mayors would be eligible to keep substantively written and well-sourced articles that met WP:NPOL #2, but it is in no sense large or significant enough that he would get an automatic notability freebie on an article that's this inadequate.
