All-candidates meetings set Chamber to hold meetings for both ridings Tyler OLSEN Abbotsford News
Conservatives choose candidate for new riding The Conservative Party of Canada has a new candidate for the riding of MissionMatsqui-Fraser Canyon. Brad Vis was announced as the party’s candidate on Tuesday. Vis was previously the communications and forward planning advisor to Abbotsford MP Ed Fast. He left that job to return to Abbotsford, where he had been working on agri-business development as an associate for Corpus Management Group. Vis’s nomination comes nearly three weeks after the party’s previous candidate for the riding, Liv Grewal, had been forced to withdraw. Vis will square off against Liberal Jati Sidhu, Arthur Green of the Green Party and independent candidate Wyatt Scott. The NDP has yet to announce their candidate for the riding, but has a meeting scheduled for Aug. 16 to pick who will run.
