GHI Candidates Forum Offers Conflicting Views on Issues

On Tuesday, October 3 Greenbelt Homes Inc. (GHI) hosted the first candidates’ event of this election season. To accommodate the bumper crop of contenders, the event lasted three hours instead of the usual two. Response times were shortened to two minutes for the opening question and one minute for all other responses, causing frustration among many of the candidates. The questions were a mix of those developed by GHI and questions from attendees at the event.
A video of the full three-hour session is available through the city’s website.
