Election

So unless you've been living under a rock for the last little bit, you should probably know that our illustrious maple flavoured country is well on its way to another federal election. Election 41 that is.

This marks a new blog showcasing the candidates of Edmonton's City Center, their platforms, positions, what they say and do, and the questions or rhetoric we have for them as Canadians.

Edmontonians, Albertans, Canadians. We live in exciting times, we also live in terrifying times. It's not only our privilege but also our democratic right and civic duty to be informed, to be learned, and to discourse on the direction of our country at a fundamental level. Let us hold accountable the people who seek our votes, and let them know that we run our country, that our politicians speak for us, not just our parties.

This blog is maintained by Lester Lee, a freelancing professional Canadian Theatre Artist. I look forward to writing my thoughts about the coming election, and the state of our democracy afterward. Join me on this adventure!
