Mayoral candidates were asked pointed questions about their campaigns
Five of the six candidates running for mayor were put on the hot seat during Sunday afternoon’s all-candidates forum held at the University of Northern British Columbia .
He said as the mayor you “have to be a bit of a salesman and try and convince people to vote along with you” and that he is also willing to compromise. “So, all those things that were necessary have made us a stronger council moving forward. But the work is not done. Moving forward, if I am chosen as your mayor another level of accountability that is essential is to take the finance and audit committee to a committee of the whole level.”
He also added that he has been involved in many lawsuits against the city in the past, but “those days are over.” He argued that this money could come from the $20,000 loan forgiveness of the Canada Emergency Business Account which was a fund set up for COVID-19 relief. “When I was attending Prince George College back in 1975 in general term it was referred to as residential school at the time – because 1975 was a transition time,” said Yu.
