[fvc-wat-disc] Cooperate for Canada Event on Saturday September 15 at 7 in Waterloo

[Anita Nickerson]

Hello fellow Fair Vote Canada supporters! (Event Poster below - scroll
down).

Cooperate for Canada is not a Fair Vote Canada campaign, so I cannot post
this on our announcements list, but it is directly related to achieving
proportional representation. That's the sole reason I'm making this cause
my top priority in the next three years, in addition to continuing to work
hard for Fair Vote Canada. I hope you will consider joining us on September
15 to talk about Liberal, NDP and Green. Today we found out that Stuart
Parker will be joining us by Skype from B.C. What a life this man has had -
http://stuartparker.ca/stuart-parkers-bio/. Someone who is not afraid of
controversy is putting it mildly. Stuart has been a leader in the electoral
reform movement and is starting a Fair Vote Canada Vancouver chapter. You
will have a chance to meet the first Liberal pro-cooperation leadership
candidate, David Merner, before the leadership race starts. I so much
appreciate the effort and leadership of James Gordon and Cathy Maclellan,
sticking their necks out for an idea that resonates with centre-left
Canadians but challenges parties. However, the Green Party of Canada
officially endorsed cooperation with 84% of members in favour at their
national convention last month.

Hope to see many of you on September 15, and please share with anyone you
know who may be interested!

Anita
