Today on Episode 3 of Cherry Picking with Alexia Benn, Saanich City Council member and CRD Director Ned Taylor joins the show to discuss municipal government.  At 19, Ned became the youngest Saanich City Council member elected. On the show, we'll discuss how he became involved in politics, why involvement at the local level is so important and influential, while also getting into the topic of youth involvement in politics as a whole. How much impact does social media have on this? Why is engagement in municipal elections so low compared to federal elections? Tune in to find out.

Cheers,

Alexia
