The Cornwall & Area Chamber of Commerce (The Chamber) and the Social Development Council of Cornwall and Area (the SDC) are coming together to co-host a Provincial Election Debate about issues important to their members. The community is invited to attend this debate geared towards issues faced by local business owners, and residents along with economic and social development concerns.

“Public debates are a key part of any election campaign, and by hosting a business specific session, the Cornwall and Area Chamber of Commerce is ensuring the voice of the business community will be highlighted. We’ve heard from our members that they want to hear about economic recovery and growth from the effects of the pandemic, labor shortages and provincial economic investments to our community. The responses from the candidates will better help our members to make a more informed decision when they step up to the voting polls.” Angela Bero, Cornwall and Area Chamber of Commerce.

Along with opening and closing statements candidates will be asked 8 questions shared between The Chamber and the SDC. The candidates will have received the prepared questions 1 day prior to the debate. Time permitting, questions from the audience will be permitted at the end.
