Thanks KevinL for bringing this to my attention.

Based on question 5, What do people need to know about you? I have ranked the four candidates from worst to best.

4 - Jay Aissa
     I would never vote for a candidate who only has business experience.  Government is not a business so Aissa has the wrong skill set.  Just look at Trump for an example.

3 - Robert Deutschmann
     He has some good ideas and would be a good regional councillor but not chair.  Also, I’m not too keen on voting for a lawyer.  I have in the past but I have  ‘trust’ issues with them.

2 - Jan d’Ailly
     He has experience beyond business and has good ideas.  He may get my vote.

1 - Karen Redman
     She has lots of experience in politics and public service.  However, her close ties to the Liberal Party makes me uneasy.  I usually vote left of centre.  So for me it’s a toss up between d’Ailly and Redman.
