#Itsnosecret that student issues are election issues. The Dalhousie Student Union and the Canadian Federation of Students - Nova Scotia are co-hosting an all candidates debate for the candidates in Halifax in the October 19th federal election.

The debate will take place in the McInnis room on the 2nd floor of the Student Union Building. Candidates will be bringing attention to the issues facing young people in Canada today including youth unemployment and underemployment, mental health, student debt, climate change, and much more.

Another partner of the DSU is the Dal Engineers Without Borders society, who are running the Get Informed. Vote. campaign. They've been doing fantastic work making issue sheets to show where parties stand on issues that students care about. Learn more at https://www.facebook.com/GetInformedVote!
