Well today's post is not anything to do with me, but simply a reminder of the final events
taking place during the final few days of the election campaign for Kamloops
City Council. The following information,
has been provided by the Vote 50 Team.
The
final week is here and everything we have all been doing to campaign comes down
to this. Below are the remaining community election events.
