All Candidates Meeting

I wanted to attend an All Candidates Meeting for my riding of Cloverdale-Langley City.  I found one in Cloverdale that was sponsored by the Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce.  It was being held in the old Clova Theatre and also being broadcast on Zoom.   I sent an email about three weeks ago asking for a ticket or a zoom invite. I would have gone to the theatre but I would prefer Zoom.  They only gave the date of September 14th, but no time.

Last night, three minutes before the meeting started, I got my invite:

Needless to say, I didn't watch it!   I'm happy I read all the platforms and voted in the advance election.  The polls say it's too close to call.   I don't believe the polls as they aren't always right, but I find them interesting to follow.

This is the poll I watch.  Our riding earlier said Conservative Tamara Jensen, "leaning";  it now says "likely".   Everything could change by election day.  The pop ups are a little annoying.

Is it ever going to happen?

The boondoggle of the George Massey Tunnel replacement has gone on for so many years and as of today, nothing has been done.  All we hear is...
