And, according to our operatives, former minister of state for multiculturalism Raymond Chan will be endorsing Mr. Kennedy's candidacy at that event. Lotusland campaign co-chairs are also expected to be named. The following is a complete copy of the invite to that launch.

This is neither intended nor should be interpreted as an endorsement or support of any particular candidate for the upcoming leadership race in the Liberal Party of Canada but rather a chance to meet and help form the debate to ensure BC issues are front and centre. We think it is important to have an open dialogue about the future of our Party and who should lead it.
