Campaign PoliticsVote 2006 – Burnaby–Douglas

Mark Miller reports from Burnaby–Douglas, British Columbia. This riding has been held by the NDP since Svend Robinson was elected in 1979. In the 2004 election, Svend Robinson had stepped out of politics and his former campaign manager, Bill Siksay, stepped in. Siksay held onto the riding for the NDP in 2004, but the race was close, with the Liberal candidate coming in only 934 votes short. This upcoming election will be an interesting rematch between three candidates: Bill Siksay (NDP), Bill Cunningham (Liberal) and Conservative candidate George Drazenovic. They all squared off in the last election and are busy campaining for this one. Green Party candidate Ray Power and Communist Party candidate Timothy George Gidora are also joining in the race. Mark Miller follows all five candidates in their fight to win the riding of Burnaby–Douglas, B.C.
