The clock is ticking, Whitehorse: there's 21 days until you vote for a new mayor and city council.
The list of candidates for council and mayor was announced shortly after nominations closed at noon on Sept. 26.
At Whitehorse City Hall, returning officer Michael Prowse drew the names of candidates randomly to establish the order in which the names would appear on the ballot.
