[fvc-wat-disc] Any activism in Ontario?

[Stephanie Janzen-Martin]

Hi all,

I just got a call from the NDP (I'm also in Waterloo). I would be happy to
see NDP reelected here, and definitely feel that we need to do whatever we
can to keep Ford out. What I asked fro from the NDP was as much interim
cooperation as possible (eg with Greens etc,) and a commitment to electoral
reform so that we don't go through again with any more future elections.

I am happy to help out in any way. :)
