Okanagan election candidates work on responses at labour forum
The free event drew 40 municipal and school board candidates and used table talks instead of a traditional debate.
- On Sunday, Sept. 27, 40 candidates from municipal and school board races met voters at the Laurel Packing House in Kelowna during a forum hosted by the North Okanagan Labour Council .
- Rather than a traditional debate format, candidates were stationed at individual tables throughout the venue, allowing direct conversations with voters competing for attention in a crowded political environment.
- Kelly Hutchinson, chair of the NOLC's Political Action Committee, noted the council received 39 applications this year and carefully reviewed candidate stances to provide voters with useful information for decision-making.
- The Labour Council plans to release its endorsements on Monday, Oct. 5, with Hutchinson expressing satisfaction with both the candidate participation level and the energy in the room.
- Voters can access endorsement results online after Oct. 5 at oklabour.org/municipal-endorsements, providing information about candidates seeking to represent their communities in the upcoming municipal elections.
