Leanne Johnson
Treasurer
When I moved to Fort St. John in 2019, I quickly discovered a community that feels like home. The people, the sense of connection, and the pride residents take in this city are what drew me in and continue to inspire me every day. As General Manager of Chances Casino Fort St. John, I also oversee Just Jacks Restaurant and the Conference Centre within the Pomeroy Hotel & Conference Centre, where I am proud to help create spaces that bring people together to celebrate, connect, and build community.
With more than 25 years of experience in the gaming and entertainment industry, I have built my career around creating positive experiences and strong teams, while maintaining a deep respect for financial responsibility and long-term sustainability. Serving my second year as Treasurer on the Fort St. John & District Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors is truly an honour, and one I do not take lightly.
Chamber work matters deeply to me because it allows me to support the people and businesses who form the backbone of our community—those who invest their time, energy, and passion into making Fort St. John a strong place to live and work. Being part of an organization that advocates for local businesses, encourages collaboration, and helps shape a positive future for our region is incredibly meaningful to me.
Giving back to the community that has welcomed me so warmly is incredibly important to me. I am passionate about supporting local businesses, strengthening relationships, and helping Fort St. John continue to grow and thrive. Family and community are at the heart of everything I do, and I am proud to serve alongside a dedicated group of leaders who share a common goal: ensuring a strong, vibrant future for Fort St. John.
