Squamish council candidate Peter Kent threatens to set himself on fire

That's one way to light a fire under voters. Squamish council candidate Peter Kent, who's a stuntman, is promising to set himself ablaze in the centre of town.

All Squamish voters have to do is beat 2011's Squamish election turnout of 39 percent. In a news release, Kent states:

I challenge other municipal candidates in Squamish and all across BC to match my pledge in some way, shape or form, that is unique to you! However, THE biggest challenge, is for each and every voter to Rock The Vote by voting on November 15, 2014!

Apparently, Kent was Arnold Schwarzenegger's stunt double in The Terminator. So he presumably knows how to do this without, you know, dying.

How about it, Vancouverites? Which local candidate would you like to see self-barbecue themselves in support of a higher voter turnout?
