The leaders of Ontario’s four main political parties will be in North Bay on Feb. 14 for a northern issues debate.
Less than two weeks before the Feb. 27 provincial election, the debate will be hosted by the Federation of Northern Ontario Municipalities (FONOM) and feature:
- Doug Ford, Progressive Conservatives.
- Bonnie Crombie, Liberals.
- Marit Stiles, New Democratic Party.
- Mike Schreiner, Green Party.
CBC Radio Morning North host Markus Schwabe will moderate the debate and pose questions on behalf of FONOM, with a special focus on northern Ontario issues.
It’s scheduled to start at 1 p.m. ET and will take place at Canadore College’s G-Wing Theatre.
Following the 90-minute debate, it’s expected the four leaders will answer media questions during a scrum.
CBC News will have a live web stream and coverage during and after the event.
