PRINCE GEORGE – After announcing his intentions Friday to run as the Liberal candidate for Cariboo-Prince George, Chris Beach has yet to be confirmed as the candidate.

However, he says that should be cleared up shortly.

“So there was a miscommunication,” he explains. “And unfortunately, just the process for greenlighting candidates, there are now 343 ridings in Canada.”

He says, in B.C. alone, the Liberal Party there are ten or 15 candidates that have not yet been named.

“I’ve done all my paperwork and I’ve done my interviews, but I’m waiting for the process to play out. I’m respecting that. I’m just really excited to finish this process and get going as a candidate in Cariboo-Prince George.”
