‘Informed decision’

Dear Editor:

You know it strikes me as very interesting that the voter turnout traditionally for municipal elections is lower than both the turnouts for federal and provincial elections. The reason it is interesting is that the issues the municipal government deals with are the ones that impact citizens most on a day to day basis: local taxes, roads, water, etc.

I would encourage everyone to read up on their candidates and engage them when they knock on your door so you can make an informed decision when you vote on Oct. 24.

Every vote counts.
