Shouldn’t our MLAs have to live in the ridings they represent?
KAMLOOPS — All the candidates in the Kamloops-North Thompson riding so far have one thing in common — none of them lives there.
Dan Hines, Peter Kerek, Peter Milobar and Barb Nederpel live on the other side of the river, in Kamloops-South Thompson.
That’s OK… the rules don’t require MLAs to live in ridings they represent.
But maybe it’s time for a rule change. Voters can’t just go anywhere they want and vote. Why should candidates be able to go and run anywhere they want?
