Big victory for Northern branch of riding

The presidency of the new Nipissing-Timiskaming Federal Liberal Riding Association has been won by a Haileybury woman.

Carol Lonsdale, pictured here, defeated Greg
Ducharme, who had been vice-president of the Nipissing Federal Liberal Riding Association before the two ridings were merged.

Lonsdale had been president of the Timiskaming-Cochrane Federal Liberal Riding Association.

Liberals from the area voted for the riding association's executive at a meeting held Saturday at the Clarion Resort-Pinewood Park.
