Conservative candidate Cathy McLeod served as Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo MP from 2008 to 2011. She is the only candidate with a campaign office in 100 Mile House

Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo Conservative candidate Cathy McLeod campaigned in 100 Mile House recently.

She supports the current budget proposal and points out benefits for rural recovery.

"Low tax rates support the mills around their decisions about reopening."

The mining exploration tax credit will be "huge" for supporting new mines in British Columbia, McLeod adds.

The Accelerated Capital Cost Allowance encourages more investment in sawmills and the latest technology to support rural jobs, she noted.
