Residents in the R.M. of Stanley had a chance to hear from both candidates running for reeve at an all candidates forum last night.

Jack Peters says working together with both Morden and Winkler is very important to the success of the region.

He says they have already worked together on such things as Boundary Trails Health Centre, Dr. C.W. Wiebe and Agassiz Medical Centres, and believes at some point there will be a regional fire department in the municipality.

 

Rural policing was also an issue with R.M. residents.


Art Petkau says that is a federal government issue because the R.M. is serviced by the RCMP.

He says we will continue to push for increased police presence.
