Last Night's Debate

IMG_5074

I had a great time at last night's all-candidates' debate, which was hosted by the Dalhousie Student Union. It was lively--not just the debates but the responses from the audience too. So many people came up to me afterwards to shake my hand and tell me I had their votes. Thanks! You can read more about the debate at the Chronicle Herald's website here.

The Dal Student Union has also posted (most of) the debate on
YouTube. Thank you SO much DSU for doing this--at over two and a half hours, that's a lot of video to edit. To view some highlights, including my opening remarks, please go to my media page.
