Plans to spend more than $118 million on three new schools in New Westminster are livening up that city’s Nov.15 election campaign.

An estimated 200 people showed up at a series of public meetings on the weekend to hear about how the district is coping with the discovery of a century-old cemetery on the site, where a new high school and middle schools were originally planned.
