Oak Bay mayor Nils Jensen, who acted as an extra in the Gracepoint TV series, is quoted in Victoria media as saying, “One of the advantages of being mayor of Gracepoint was I didn’t have to attend meetings where we talked about deer, sewage or amalgamation.”
Further, he said, when Jensen and two Oak Bay councillors were directed to, “look engaged,” “but also kind of exhausted and bored,” Jensen “… assured the director they had plenty of experience doing that.”
If this is Mr. Jensen’s take on what it’s like to be mayor of Oak Bay, it seems it’s time he moves on – perhaps to Gracepoint?
