After participating in a panel discussion on CBC K-W's The Morning Edition, Kitchener-Conestoga candidates were asked where they stand on plans by the Region of Waterloo, supported by the province, to buy farmland in Wilmot Township for future industrial use. The four candidates who took part in the panel were Brayden Wagenaar of the Green Party, Conservative incumbent Mike Harris Jr., NDP's Jodi Szimanski and Liberal Joe Gowing. There are six candidates in total in this riding. The other candidates are: Patrick Doucette of the Ontario Party and Jim Karahalios of the New Blue Party.
