For those still looking to gather more information on candidates before voting, several forums will be held this week, including the St. Albert and Morinville council candidate forums tonight, along with St. Albert Public school board.
The St. Albert Chamber of Commerce will host two more virtual election forums for St. Albert council candidates on Oct. 12 and 13, both from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
