CALGARY – With the municipal election just two weeks away, voters have a chance to learn more about the mayoral candidates at a forum at the University of Calgary on Monday.
The event is at 7 p.m. in Macewan Hall (Ballroom).
However, one of Mayor Naheed Nenshi’s opponents won’t be able to attend, because he is out of the country.
Former alderman and MLA Jon Lord is in Kansas City, Missouri to compete in the American Royal Barbecue Contest.
