    Dear Listeners,

    Thanks for tuning in. In this episode are the last batch of quick interviews I did with Ward 6 and Ward 7 candidates respectively who were present while I was in attendance at the Combined Business Council Candidate Expo that took place last week.

    Please note that Wards 9 and 10 the incumbents were acclaimed - Zack Jeffries and Bev Dubois. While there were candidates present from Wards 3 and 4; with the time available (event scheduled from 4 to 6 pm), I was not able to get to candidates who were present from Wards 3 and 4.

    You can find further information about all the candidates in each of the respective wards, school boards and those running for mayor here - 2024 Candidate Profiles | Saskatoon.ca.

    A big thank you to all the candidates for doing these 'on the fly' interviews. There was no heads up given and candidate availability was appreciated.

    Civically Speaking,
    Lenore Swystun
