This Saturday is election day even though advance polling has started.  Are you still undecided?  Our Municipal Committee asked the Candidates for their answers on four key areas, Transportation, Economy, Crime and Kelowna Planning.  Have a look at their responses (two candidates have not responded). 

We also held the Mayoralty Forum and uploaded small video clips of their address to the Luncheon Crowd.
