The all-candidates meeting at the Seniors Centre on Monday, April 29 was well worth attending. All three candidates (Gunner, NDP; Birch, Conservative; George, Green) were not only knowledgeable about the environment, they were also passionate about protecting it. Their passion, however, did not override their logic and keen sense of business. If any of these three were to represent me in Victoria I would truly feel represented. I just wish we had proportional representation or single transferrable voting.
Proportional voting could bring us more than one candidate. I encourage others to attend the remaining all-candidates meetings so you can see for yourselves what wonderful candidates we have running to represent us.
Greg Kyllo, from the BC Liberals, was absent on Monday.
