Streaming Cafe is partnering with local go-to news source Castanet to bring a mayoral debate live streamed to Kelowna voters. It’s a bit off path from our norm of streaming indie music but we believe it’s a great avenue to support the community by helping voters to make educated decisions on who to cast their ballet at.
The debate will not be streamed on our website but you can take part and watch @ http://www.castanet.net where online and emailed questions will be taken.
Come down in person if you are in Kelowna to the cafe and take in the evening in person.
Here’s an article from Castanet about the evening.
