Following David Hickey’s win in the Saint John Harbour riding in last month’s provincial election, the seat he occupied on Saint John city council has become vacant. A number of candidates have put their names forward for the Ward 3 council seat so far, including Arty Watson.
Local 107.3FM spoke with Watson about his reasons for standing in the by-election and what he hopes to bring to the role.
Local 107.3FM will be reaching out to all the other candidates over the coming days and weeks in the runup to the by-election, set to take place on December 9th. Information about all the candidates can be found via electionsNB.ca.
