[fvc-wat-disc] Notes from FVWR October Meeting and Agenda for Wed. Nov. 27

[Cathy Scott]

Hi, All,
Just confirming the info from Jay that the next meeting for FVWR discussion
group will be:
Wed. Nov. 27
7:00 pm
at St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church
at the corner of Water and Duke streets in Kitchener

I learned that someone who hasn't attended recently was unable to get into
the church when he arrived late and there was no one at the door.
Although it is difficult to have someone at the door after the meeting
begins, we will try to check the door more diligently for late arrivals.
*Also, anyone who arrives late and can't get in, may call my cell phone,
and we'll come let you in:  519 504-0090.*

*Here are notes from the meeting of 30 Oct. 2019:*

*Region Fair Vote Waterloo Discussion Group*

*Meeting notes for 30 Oct. 2019*

1.        Discussion of the election results and their effect on the cause
of electoral reform.

3.       Website:  Jay offered to talk to Bob and Aden to consider ways of
getting our website back online.



4.       Possibility of organizing a  public event and/or a door-knocking
campaign.  A strategy meeting is needed to discuss this further.

from the Halton region and is working on starting a Fair Vote Chapter
there.  He is interested in learning about what we do and any guidance we
can offer.*
