[Dave Arthur]

But Fairvote and electoral reform are not partisan. Correct?

I’m always on the side of activism. Whenever questions are posed to our group. “Shall we do X?”, my answer will always be,  “Yes!.” So yes to what Peter wrote, and yes to delegating to Anita the herding, corralling and sending off of pro-PR residents to meet with our newly re-elected and elected MPs outside their constituency offices. Catherine Fife and I recall Bardish Chagger telling our Fair Vote they couldn’t discuss partisan politics inside their constituency office. Hence, we follow the rules of engagement and meet on neutral territory.

Hi, Everyone
Just a reminder that this Wednesday, Oct. 30,  is the last of the month and we will be meeting at the 'Hub' at 7:00pm, at St. John's church at Duke and Water Streets.
Here are some points of discussion:
1. election results (I will bring The Record edition that lists the results by riding).  
2. strategies for getting electoral reform on the Liberal-NDP-Green agenda
• visits to local Liberal MPs regarding establishing a Citizens' Assembly
• should we accept Anita's offer to help us find and coordinate volunteers for these visits or organize them ourselves, independently of FVC?
       3. website update - Jay recently found that our website is down

See you then!
Cathy

Hi, Sharon and Bob
It occurred to me yesterday that this coming Wed. is the last of the month.  
Some of the agenda might be:
- discussing the election results (I saved the Record edition that lists results riding by riding)
- planning strategy for getting electoral reform on the Liberal-NDP-Green agenda;  and how they could do it before the next election, if we can show that it should be important to them.
 
What do you think?
Let me know if you want me to send out the announcement.

Hello Bob, 

Bob, congratulations on moving the Green vote up nearly 4% in Brantford-Brant.  That represents a lot of work & that doesn't include travel time!

You usually send out the notice for our monthly meeting.  Are you up to doing that or should Cathy/I send it out?

It will be at the Hub.

Warm regards,
S.
