More than 88 percent of CKBW/HANK FM listeners say they will support local merchants while shopping for the holidays. In total, 149 of those who voted on our web site say they have already or plan on buying local. This week's question asks listeners if they support the Nova Scotia government's $50 million dollar bailout package for Bowater Mersey. Our poll is located toward the bottom of our Home page.
