All Candidates Forum - CRD Area 'G' and SD #27 - Zone 2

Last night, an All-Candidates Forum was held in Lac La Hache at the Pioneer Centre. Al Richmond (Area 'G' Director) and Herb Korenberg (Area 'G' Director-candidate) were in attendance along with Deb Ostrander (SD #27 - Zone 2 candidate) and Lac La Hache PAC Chair (sorry, can't remember the name) who was standing in for Pete Penner (SD #27 Board Chair and Current Zone #2 Trustee) were also in attendance. Mr. Penner was in Vancouver on School Board business.

All but 1 question was directed at Herb Korenberg over erroneous statements in his election campaign brochures. All night, it was commented that Mr. Korenberg had personal reasons against Al Richmond as to why he (Herb Korenberg) was running to become the Area 'G' Director.

About 35 people were in attendance. 99% of those in attendance were Al Richmond supporters. I have no doubt in my mind now that Al Richmond will be re-elected in a landslide on November 15th.
