Lethbridge City Council[edit]
In December 2020, Miyashiro was one of 6 councillors who voted to go forward with decreasing the Lethbridge Police Service (LPS) budget by $1-million.[3]
In March 2021, after Lethbridge City Council denied a proposal for a sober shelter from the Mustard Seed and the Lethbridge Soup Kitchen, Miyashiro expressed his disappointment at the racial intolerance of those who spoke against the motion, stating they "lowered the bar of discourse when they started talking about indigenous people."[4]
