In Saugeen Shores, there is no race for Mayor as Luke Charbonneau has been acclaimed to the office.
Here are the questions we asked:
1) Are you in favour of bricks-and-mortar cannabis stores in your municipality? Why or why not?
2) What are your plans for future economic development strategies? with the Bruce Power extending its operating life for decades, an influx of new residents are expected in the region. How will we accommodate them?
3) With prosperity, comes hardship. Many local businesses are concerned that they do not have enough employees to sustain their businesses because of the many high paying jobs that exist in the region combined with the low unemployment rate. How do we make local businesses sustainable, in your opinion?
