There off, on the hustings today, the first election signs appeared on Voght Street. A councilor candidate named Polmans has some small stenciled 2 by 3 foot signs out .

There are two candidates for mayor 2 ex mayors running for councilor. Kroker and Norguard.Candidates  include incumbent Alastair Murdock, Shelly Sanders,  H. Kroeker.  There is  a neophyte Harvey Keys and others…..

There was an increase in the money paid for the civic duty around the time of the last election it seems not to have made much of a difference to the motivation of the people to run. a former liberal Prime minister says that the animosity should be lessened to encourage the young to run. There is no one under thirty running and some well into their 7th decade are still running.

A politician becomes a public figure when elected limiting their claim to privacy. that will not change.
