Voting is a fundamental democratic right and an opportunity for Canadians to choose who represents them at every level of government.
Voting in a municipal election connects citizens with local issues and the political process. From roads and infrastructure to recreation, public safety, neighbourhoods, and community services, local government makes decisions that affect our everyday lives.
The results of this election will determine the incoming leadership of Prince George for the next four years and help shape the future of our community.
