Skeena riding candidates for the provincial election now underway are preparing themselves for tonight's (Sept. 26) forum being held at the Terrace Sportslex banquet room.

Hosted by the Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce, the event begins at 5:30 p.m. and ends at 8 p.m.

"This is an opportunity to engage with your local MLA hopefuls, ask them your burning questions, and learn more about each of their campaign platforms," said chamber executive director Golnoosh Namazi.

Running for the NDP is Terrace city councillor Sarah Zimmerman and running for the provincial Conservative party is former District of Kitimat councillor Claire Rattée.

B.C. United MLA Ellis Ross isn't running again as he now wants to become the federal Conservative MP for the federal Skeena - Bulkley Valley riding.
