This week’s question to the candidates was: Given that the province aims to double tourism within the next few years, as well as to combat the vacancy tax, how do you propose to continue the conversation towards balancing local accommodations while maintaining relative affordability?
​As part of the Bow Valley: A Place for All campaign, we invited municipal election candidates to: sign our open letter, share their perspectives on two key questions and create an action plan. Together, these steps show their ongoing commitment to interrupt racism, celebrate diversity, and welcome newcomers across the Bow Valley.
These questions focus on key issues including the vacancy tax, housing, governance, and fiscal priorities.
Being a strictly environmental forum, candidates were asked questions directly relating to the local environment.
