Stacy Wong/Dr. Sheila Boehm holds their Meet and Greet yesterday

Courtesy of the Rush:

Stacy Wong, area “E” candidate, and Sheila Boehm, zone five school trustee candidate, held a meet and greet session with voters Sunday in Williams Lake.

Here Wong talks about some of the issues area residents raised during the session: “Of course the water/sewer issue, that’s on top of everybody’s mind. But there was also another issue brought up regarding the increased taxation costs for the Fire Hall. About 100% was the difference. So I’m going to look into that and find out why that came out so high.”

Wong’s competitors in area “E” are Bill Carruthers, Byron Kemp and Brandy Dickey. Meanwhile Boehm has two challengers, Jim Ritchie and Olleh Lazarchuk.

The meet and greet session was held at the Pioneer Complex.

WL News - Oct 25th edition

a) Election Announcements or News:

City of WL - Mike Bouchard wants a seat on Council - see here
                     Danica Hughes wants a seat on Council - see here

Editor's Note - Ms. Hughes, on the Rush, suggested that "certain candidates" were running to line their own pockets rather than serving the community interest.  I profoundly regret her making that comment.  Let us all keep the debate to policies or positions that candidates advocate for, and not what a candidate(s) personal motivation is for running.  Interesting that she came right out and endorsed Kerry Cook for Mayor.  I wonder if that will hurt her bid for a Councillor seat or not...

CRD Area 'E' Campaign Lit - Stacy Wong

Earlier this evening - Stacy Wong, candidate for the Cariboo Regional District - Electoral Area 'E' released her campaign brochure

Interesting she chooses to use the word "City" as part of her brochure given the Electoral Area she is running for is rural in nature

I wonder if any voters' will question her on this point...

Editor's Note - this blog post was updated on Oct 25th at 8:30am as Ms. Wong campaign brochure contained the Cariboo Regional District's logo which is a no-no in this election.  It should be noted in the 2005 Area 'B' election, then Area B candidate Steve Wallace had also included the CRD logo on his campaign signs which the then CRD Chief Election Officer ordered its removal
