It was not unanimous but Council today approved free transit for people who show their voting cards during the next federal election day. This will be a pilot project.
This proposal was brought to by the Kamloops Young Liberals association as a way to try to increase voter turnout. The Young Libs were represented by a high school student who is articulate well well (yes well X2) beyond his years and even has a blog - Emile Scheffel.
Very cool! Well done, Emile and Council!
