NANAIMO — Every candidate running to represent the Nanaimo riding in the provincial legislature are set to face off for the first time.

Though Tony Harris, Sheila Malcolmson and Michele Ney have debated before, they’ve never been joined by candidates from the three other fringe parties running in the byelection.

Justin Greenwood with the BC Conservatives, Robin Richardson from the Vancouver Island Party and Libertarian Bill Walker are expected to join the others on stage at the Beban Park Auditorium at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 24.

Interested voters will have a chance to meet all the candidates starting at 6 p.m.
