Candidate forums are taking place across the NWT as municipal election season hits its stride.

Cabin Radio has been interviewing mayoral and town/city councillor candidates across the NWT in preparation for the upcoming October 15 municipal elections – but if you want to meet your future elected representatives and ask them some questions yourself, we’ve got the details on the local all-candidate forums happening in Yellowknife, Fort Smith, Hay River, Inuvik, Norman Wells, and Fort Simpson.

If you’re lucky, there might even be snacks.
