Winnipeg announces byelection to replace late councillor Jason Schreyer

Residents of the Elmwood-East Kildonan area will cast their ballots in a fall byelection to replace late city councillor Jason Schreyer.

Schreyer, who had served the ward since 2014, died in late April.

The city has scheduled a byelection for Oct. 25. Eligible voters will also be able to choose candidates for two school trustees (Louis Riel School Division Ward 3 and Pembina Trails School Division Ward 1) on that day.
