Cranbrook residents will be able to ask questions to local candidates running in the 2022 general municipal election.

JCI Kootenay will be hosting an all-candidates forum at the Key City Theatre on Thursday, Oct. 6.

According to JCI officials, the forum will give the public a chance to discuss political issues concerning the community.

Candidates will be asked a series of questions submitted anonymously by the audience before the event.
