Nanaimo Teachers’ Association hosting all-candidates meeting

NANAIMO — With the provincial election only three weeks away, mid-island candidates will put their policies on display Tuesday night.

The Nanaimo District Teachers’ Association (NDTA) is hosting an all-candidates meeting April 18 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the multi-purpose room at Dover Bay Secondary School.

NDTA president Mike Ball said all candidates from the three mid-island ridings (Nanaimo-North Cowichan, Nanaimo and Parksville-Qualicum) were invited.

“As far as we’re aware, unfortunately all of the Liberal candidates have declined to attend,” Ball said.
