<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi Fair Vote Canada Waterloo supporters! I imagine
most of you are on the national mailing list, but if you're not, please take
note of our convention below, and share!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Having been very involved in planning aspects of
this convention, I guaranteed it will be quite different from previous
years -something for everyone! Each of the centre-left parties is now talking
about electoral reform - the public is more aware than ever of the need for
change. Proportional representation really could be an election issue
in 2015, but we need to speak up and build this campaign together! </FONT><FONT
size=2 face=Arial>I really see the next three years as the time for Fair Vote
Canada to build a much larger national movement for a vote that counts, bringing
together concerned citizens, activists, allied groups, experts, and
politicians from all across Canada to make this a highly visible,
ballot box issue in 2015. We can do it - but we need
you!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Please join us on May 26.</FONT></DIV>
