All-Candidates geared up for a debate double-whammy

With the clock ticking down to election time, candidates from both Prince George ridings will duke it out in one of the last local debates.

For the Prince George- Peace River- Northern Rockies Riding, incumbent conservative Bob Zimmer will be on defence against Liberal Matt Shaw, New Democrat Kathie Dickie, Progressive Conservatice Barry Blackman, and the Green’s Elizabeth Biggar.

For the Cariboo Prince George riding, Conservative Todd Doherty, Liberal Tracy Calogheris, New Democrat Trent Derrick, Independent Sheldon Clare, Green Richard Jaques, and the Christian Heritage Party’s Adam de Kroon will make their voices heard.

Each riding will have about an hour to cover six topics, with a 15 minute intermission in between.

The format will give each candidate one minute to answer a question before the group is able to openly discuss their answers.

There will be no questions from the floor.

UNBC Political Science professor Tracy Summerville will be moderating when the forum gets underway at 7pm at UNBC’s Canfor Theatre.
