Nelson-Creston Green Party candidate Kim Charlesworth is disappointed to announce that party leader Andrew Weaver will not be in Nelson to host a The forum, titled “The Climate and Our Future".

"(Andrew) didn't even get out of Victoria," Charlesworth lamented.

The winter storm grounded flights out of Cranbrook, Weaver's destination to get to the Kootenays. Weaver would then drive to Nelson to attend the event.

Charlesworth said once the the Nelson-Creston team lines up a time with Weaver's camp, the event will be rescheduled.
