Mayoralty Candidates Don't Oppose Plebiscites

Two of three candidates for the mayor's chair in Kenora say they are not opposed
to holding plebiscites to deal with important city issues.

The issue was raised during the open-line program Talkback yesteday on CJRL.

Andrew Poirier says if there is one thing the policing issue taught him, was not to ignore the voices of local ratepayers.

Former Kenora mayor Dave Canfield says while he's not opposed to holding a plebiscite, he can't envision a reason for that having to happen.

The third candidates for the mayoralty, Jim Parson was unable to attend the talk show due to the death of his wife last week from cancer.
