• CBC Votes 2014: #CBCStreetTalk

On Thursday October, 9 the CBC Street Talk team visited the Gloucester-South Nepean ward to meet with you, the voters, to ask: What would make your neighbourhood a better place to live?

Gloucester-South Nepeanis located in the south end of Ottawa.The ward extends as far east as Bank Street, and as west as Greenbank Road.

Thisward is just one of six where the incumbent councillor is not running for re-election. Seven candidates have thrown their hats in the ring to replace Steve Desroches.

CBC Ottawa asked all the candidates running for city council to record a one-minute pitch and tell voters why they think they're the best candidate for their ward. The pitches below are from those who participated in this project.
