Libertarian Enters Vernon-Monashee Race

The Libertarian Party will be represented in the Vernon-Monashee riding in the May 9th election.

The party has endorsed Don Jefcoat of Vernon to carry its banner.

Jefcoat says he’s the only candidate more interested in tackling local issues.

He says he has several pages of concerns people in the riding have from clinics closing to a lack of doctors and chronic homelessness.

Jefcoat says it’s time for someone to start acting on recommendations from various committees and round tables.

He says he wants to restore faith to the democratic system and make government’s more accountable to their constituents.
