Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - The election writ was dropped Sunday and the following day Cortes Currents published responses from the candidates in our riding. As they were either emails or excerpts from press releases, it is only on the web. However NDP candidate Tanille Johnston just sent in an audio clip as well.
She’s referring to a meeting the Cortes Island Climate Action Network put on in Mansons Hall.
“Hey everybody, just doing a little shout out. Thanks so much for having me a few weeks back. I really heard loud and clear your priorities of investing locally, especially in food sovereignty, climate mitigation, and how much investing locally really gets your best results for doing that kind of work on the ground.”
“So really excited that the writ has dropped and the campaign is launched. On my way to qathet, and will be over in Powell River today. I have a full packed schedule and look forward to seeing you guys again soon, bye.”
