Season 3, Episode 7 - Chrystopher Thompson

Today Christine & Russel got a chance to sit down with one of the mayoral candidates for the upcoming municipal election in Prince Rupert, Chrystopher Thompson.  Chrystopher has worked in education for 13 years and presently is an Indigenous mentor at Pacific Coast School (PCS).   A new face to the political arena, we wanted to get to know Chrystopher a little better, who is he and what he stands for , on the evening before the first All Candidates Forum for the public to do the same. 
We asked: what lead him to both his current field and what made him want to run for mayor, what  his approach is to being accessible to the public as well as how to deal with confrontational voters and what it means for his private life. 
There is a lot to unpack.  
Welcome!
