There is an information event scheduled tomorrow night for those who want to run for office in the upcoming municipal election. 

 

The City of Thompson is hosting a pre-election orientation with the goal of informing candidates, and those thinking of becoming one, of what to expect during and after the election process. 

 

The session is set to cover topics including registration and withdrawal deadlines and conflicts of interest. The night will also cover eligibility criteria and restrictions as well as the roles and responsibilities of elected officials.  

 

The information that will be covered is for those interested in running for mayor, council or school board. 

 

The orientation is set to take place in the Letkemann Theatre at R.D. Parker Collegiate, starting at 7:00pm. 

 

If you’d like more information you should call Dave Turpin, the senior election official for the City, at 204-677-1000 or email seo@thompson.ca.
