Kitchener Ward 9 candidates

Seems like they both have very similar platforms too, at least from my cursory glance at things.

Similar … but Chapman clearly prefers heritage to development, whereas Bowman agrees that we also need development (and housing, specifically), we cannot preserve everything that's old. 

So that definitely tells me who I want to vote for.

I talked to Bowman at the door today. She was very clear on development that she believes the route to retaining housing affordability in the core is more development, ensuring prices aren't driven up due to lack of supply. She made it pretty clear, without pushing my own viewpoint, that she was in favour of the Vive development on Queen St (and had lots of good explanations as to why she supported it).
