It’s officially election season.
With the April 16 vote just around the corner, it’s important that voters take the time to get to know who’s in the running for MLA.
There’s really no excuse not to get to know the candidates before the big day. With both the Cold Lake and Bonnyville chambers hosting all-candidates forums, residents have plenty of opportunities to get to know the person behind the ballot.
By taking the time to get informed, you’re able to make a more knowledgable decision come voting day.
You’ll know each candidate’s platform, their view for the region, and the changes the area could see if they’re elected.
News outlets across the province will be keeping their readers informed.
In fact, the Nouvelle has taken the time to sit down with each of our candidates in order to introduce them.
If you want a chance to delve deeper into NDP candidate Kari Whan, UCP Dave Hanson, Alberta Party Glenn Andersen, or independent Kacey Daniels’ stories more, visit our website bonnyvillenouvelle.ca.
We want to ensure you’re well informed as you head to the polls.
That’s another important step: taking the time to vote.
Every time an election rolls around, the Nouvelle takes a moment to remind our readers about the importance of voting.
It doesn’t take long, you don’t need much, and it’s your chance to have a say in the future of Alberta.
