BEA Voting

In this episode of Kitimat, What's the Future, Laurel and Devin discuss the opening of the voting for the Kitimat Business Excellence Awards. Laurel explains that voting is now open until October 4th, and encourages the community to vote for their favorite businesses on the Kitimat Chamber of Commerce website. Voters can skip categories they’re unfamiliar with, and it's emphasized that this isn’t a popularity contest, but rather an opportunity to recognize truly deserving businesses. The Business Excellence Awards event will take place on Thursday, October 25th, with tickets available online for $50.

The episode also covers the upcoming all-candidates forum for the provincial election, which will be held on September 25th at the Mount Elizabeth Theatre. The event will include a moderated Q&A session, with questions both pre-prepared and submitted by the audience. For those unable to attend in person, the forum will be streamed live on the Chamber's Facebook page.

Listeners are reminded about the importance of voting and making informed decisions for the future, especially for younger generations. The hosts encourage participation in both the awards and the provincial election, emphasizing that community engagement is crucial for shaping Kitimat’s future.
