The first roman candle targets

Most candidates are cautious about putting their campaign signs up for the municipal election prior to Halloween. Andrew Chisholm does not appear to be one of those candidates. Since last night his signs - in red and white reading, "Chisholm for Change" - have sprouted up in a few locations around Burnaby.

This puts the onus on Parvin Chami and former council member Nancy Harris to get their names out there so that they do not have to suffer the indignity of a last place showing on election day (assuming that being a part of a slate guarantees you a higher vote count than all independent candidates).
