As the Canadian Future Party officially introduced its candidate for the LaSalle-Émard-Verdun byelection on Thursday — a day after the party’s formal launch — questions lingered about voters’ appetite for a new option on the ballot.
Mark Khoury will run for the party in the Montreal riding, while Zbig Strycharzy was added to the ballot Thursday for the Elmwood-Transcona byelection.
Neither of the candidates’ biographies on the Canadian Future Party website mention them having run in any previous election or having any prior political affiliations.
