Hi readers,
It’s a sure sign of spring in the Cowichan Valley when the cherry blossom trees on Canada Avenue are in full bloom! There’s something so magical about walking underneath them in the morning when I take my pup, Arthur, out and they are a great reminder of why this is my favourite time of the year. What do you love about spring?
With the federal election campaign kicking off this week, we created a guide that brings together all the information you need to get out and vote on April 28. Be sure to check that page regularly. We’ll be updating the guide as the campaign progresses and I’ll be sure to let you know when we do so. Find the voter guide linked below!
Also, community members and officials from the City of Nanaimo gathered to raise a flag at city hall to mark Transgender Day of Visibility. Read more about that event in a story by my colleague Mick Sweetman at the link below.

Survey: What federal election issues are important to you? |
|
🗣️ The federal election takes place on April 28, and advance polls open on April 18.
At The Discourse, we believe that you, the community, should guide the federal election conversation. We want to know what’s important to you and offer coverage that responds to your questions and concerns.
Tell us what you think and we’ll do our best to dig into the issues that matter to you, and pose your questions to local candidates. Your participation in this survey will help inform our work and contribute to local dialogue about this election. Thanks for being part of it!
