Live in Victoria? That would help

Like many who live in the city of Victoria, I am trying to determine who to vote for in the upcoming byelection. I have been disappointed with our present council because they don’t seem to consider the needs of citizens like myself.

Four of our seven councillors do not even live in Victoria and I believe this is part of the problem.

When I review the list of candidates for the byelection, six of the eleven do not identify whether they live in the city itself, including the two supposed front runners.

I think it is important that the city insist candidates for council declare whether they are residents of the city.
