NANAIMO, B.C. — Voters are heading to the polls to elect a member of Parliament in the British Columbia riding of Nanaimo-Ladysmith today in what could be an indicator of the October federal election.
The leaders of the Liberals, Conservatives, Greens, NDP and the People’s Party of Canada have all visited the riding since the byelection was called.
David Black, a political communications expert at Royal Roads University in Victoria, says that highlights the importance of the vote so close to a federal election.
