Adam StirlingHOST
Will he do it again? Sid Tobias also carrying the standard for Centre BC.
Adam StirlingHOST
Um, certainly there will be residents who voted for him while he was mayor and recognize him as the mayor of View Royal who might also be interested in supporting him for MLA.
Adam StirlingHOST
Uh, will we see OneBC even come close to striking distance of any seat in the province? They're only on the ballot in one of the seven ridings here on South Vancouver Island.
Adam StirlingHOST
That's Juan de Fuca-Malahat.
Adam StirlingHOST
And we'll, of course, have full analysis of the leaders debate on the show tomorrow.
Adam StirlingHOST
But coming up in just a few moments, we're going to be checking in on how the View Royal mayoral debate went live on CFAX earlier today.
Adam StirlingHOST
We've got debates all over the place.
Adam StirlingHOST
We've got overlapping municipal election campaigns.
Adam StirlingHOST
Have come to know over the years with the white lettering.
Adam StirlingHOST
You can subscribe to it and you can pull up a live stream and you can listen to this show and we'll have those visuals there that translate back and forth through the program for you.
Adam StirlingHOST
Or you can, of course, listen to the live interviews that we have on the morning show with Ryan, as well as our live CFAX debates, including the View Royal mayoral debate that streamed about 25 minutes ago.
Adam StirlingHOST
And that's where I want to dive in as we open up our coverage of that.
Adam StirlingHOST
The only objection that I've had so far, and if Ryan Painter can tell me where he got these numbers from, I'll happily put those up as well.
Adam StirlingHOST
But I heard Ryan Painter quote a large number of collisions between a handful of intersections in View Royal.
Adam StirlingHOST
And that wasn't my understanding.
Adam StirlingHOST
It was a huge number.
speaker_3MODERATOR
That's our question on taxes.
speaker_3MODERATOR
Now moving on to the next question.
speaker_3MODERATOR
How do you feel about View Royal when it comes to housing development and how do you think the town should move forward with future development? We will now begin with Ryan Painter.
speaker_3MODERATOR
Two minutes.
Adam StirlingHOST
[upbeat music] This is Adam Stirling on CFAX 1070.
Adam StirlingHOST
We continue our special analysis segment of the CFAX 1070 2026 mayoral debates for the municipality of View Royal.
Adam StirlingHOST
If you're just joining us, we had three candidates for View Royal's mayor's chair in, uh, our...
Adam StirlingHOST
Actually, it's our downstairs studio at the [laughs] beautiful Saxe Point Public House.
Adam StirlingHOST
And you can see how it looked on YouTube.
Adam StirlingHOST
Mm
David ScreechGUEST
... than there used to be.
David ScreechGUEST
So I think when you take those two things, it just makes a big difference, and View Royal is the pinch point of the region.
Mike McDonaldHOST
Yeah.
Mike McDonaldHOST
I drove through View Royal a few times.
Mike McDonaldHOST
I didn't stop.
Geoff MeggsHOST
Yeah.
Mike McDonaldHOST
Yeah.
Geoff MeggsHOST
Yeah.
Mike McDonaldHOST
So [laughs] still haven't got any hate mail from View Royal yet.
Geoff MeggsHOST
[laughs]
Adam StirlingHOST
And the interest that we had was so great, we have actually changed our programming for this week to add an extra debate.
Adam StirlingHOST
Please join us for the View Royal mayoral debate, which will be scheduled tomorrow at 10:00 AM here on CFAX 1070, the iHeartRadio app, or you can watch it live on YouTube.
Adam StirlingHOST
Due to the success and the demand that we have seen, people expressing interests in the various debates that we did last week, we have added another one.
Adam StirlingHOST
Uh, if there was more time in terms of not doing the provincial election and all the others, and I had my way, we would do so many of these debates.
13 MINS LATER
Adam StirlingHOST
We have candidates for Centre BC, for example.
Adam StirlingHOST
Here in the Victoria area, we haven't covered many of the press conferences yet for Centre BC.
Adam StirlingHOST
Sid Tobias is running, former mayor of View Royal, as well as Andrew Weaver in the riding of Oak Bay-Gordon Head, among the noteworthy names that we're going to be watching.
Adam StirlingHOST
Elenore Sturko held a press conference on Friday announcing the platform for Centre BC, and it sounded a lot like this as she came out making the argument in favor of-
RayHOST
There's so many different districts.
NicHOST
And View Royal.
NicHOST
There's, there's so many.
NicHOST
I'm sorry.
Bruce McGuiganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Get Esquimalt to help.
Bruce McGuiganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Get Central Saanich, View Royal, and all the other municipalities to help."
Adam StirlingHOST
And, and I'm afraid we're out of time.
Adam StirlingHOST
All right.
Rob MartinGUEST
So it's only Colwood residents that get that access.
Rob MartinGUEST
Langford and View Royal have also done the same thing, that they now have medical clinics, and they are prioritizing their residents.
Adam StirlingHOST
I'm not aware of that, and I'm not sure where he's getting that from.
Adam StirlingHOST
But in terms of only Langford residents being, um, uh, able to become attached to a family physician through the new medical clinic, say, I'm not quite sure it works the same way that Colwood's does.
Adam StirlingHOST
It's been in the news.
Adam StirlingHOST
It's been called innovative.
Adam StirlingHOST
Langford has other methods, and View Royal, of course, is also exploring similar models.
Adam StirlingHOST
But I'm not sure they're the same, as was asserted earlier.
Adam StirlingHOST
Three that I can think of that lost in 2022 and are trying to retake their seats in this election.
Adam StirlingHOST
David Screech in View Royal, Rob Martin in Colwood, and of course, Stu Young in Langford, all being examples of mayors who lost in 2022 trying to retake their seats four years later in 2026.
Adam StirlingHOST
Will he have what it takes, according to the voters, to win over Doug Kobayashi? What about his, uh, other opponent, Cynthia Day? What will happen with potential vote splits? Because ultimately, the more candidates in any race, and the more well-known they are, the more votes they get, the more distortions we can see in these dynamics.
Adam StirlingHOST
We're going to be taking a quick break.
