Peter Kerr and NDP president of the Lake Country 麻豆精选 riding Mike Nuyens aim to raise awareness for the NDP campaign moving forward into the next election.

NDP supporters gathered their signs and waved to passersby on Harvey Avenue.

The goal was to raise awareness about platform issues leading up to the election, said the president of the NDP 麻豆精选/Lake Country riding Mike Nuyens.

NDP candidates have not been chosen yet for the 麻豆精选 ridings.

They plan to select officials in the beginning of March.

So far in each riding, there has been one candidate, 鈥渨hich isn鈥檛 bad.鈥 said the president of the 麻豆精选 West riding Karen Abramsen.

Medicare Premiums are an issue the NDP is taking on, as well as making daycare affordable by lowering the cost to $10, said Abramsen.

The BCNDP wants to abolish the premiums and roll it into provincial taxes.

They also want to raise the minimum wage to $15.

鈥淎ffordability in the 麻豆精选 area is a huge issue,鈥 said Nuyens.

But, Abramsen said it isn鈥檛 likely the NDP will win the 麻豆精选 ridings.

鈥淭his is not the socialist hotbed here. Let鈥檚 face it. It鈥檚 not that likely, but things could always change,鈥 she said.

The Burma Shave was held, Feb. 18.

The next provincial election is scheduled for May 9.
