Dahling ducks All Candidates meetings

Oct 21, 2026 | 8:11 AM

Three mid-island chambers of commerce are hosting the only public all-candidates meeting of MLA hopefuls tonight, but only two of the three candidates will be there.
NDP incumbent Josie Osborne and Green Party candidate Gracie MacDonald will be at the Clayoquot Sound Theatre in Tofino for the event but the Conservatives Joshua Dahling cancelled.
The event starts at 6pm and will be live streamed on the Tofino Chamber of Commerce’s facebook page and posted to YouTube.

Last night the Alberni District Labour Council hosted an all-candidates meeting for their members and Dahling did not attend.
We have been reaching out to him for the past two weeks through e-mails, direct messages and web forms, but have not had a reply.
