“This is a non-partisan event to allow the voting public to better know the candidates, engage our youth 18-40 to be more involved with our democracy and allow people to make the most informed decision possible,” said JCI Kootenay.

The Kootenay East All-Candidates Forum will begin at 6:30 pm on Tuesday, October 13th.
