<div dir="ltr">Hey everyone.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm doing a webinar on referendums on Sunday 13th at 7
PM Eastern if you want to join.<br>
<br>
<a

<div>I'll give you a heads up that it's a bummer - not the
kind of webinar I want to do so I've been procrastinating
a bit. But nothing compared to the kind of heartbreak you
get when the results come in and you really thought this
time would be different...and the consequences of a lost
referendum. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Since last year I've been looking at some of the
research, and just like other topics everyone on our core
team needs to know basic info on - PR 101, about AV, about
CAs - this seemed to me like necessary info.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It is a bit of a longer presentation (takes about 40
minutes for me to walk through it and as it's the first
time you'll see me looking at my notes...). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm going to be joined for the Q+A by Professor <a
href="https://www.concordia.ca/artsci/polisci/wssr/all-guest-lecturers/lawrenceleduc.html"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">Lawrence Leduc</a>,
who's an expert in referendums, citizens' assemblies and
electoral reform.<br>
<br>
<font color="#000000">At 8:30 PM we'll be repeating the
webinar in French, this time led by Gisela,
with Jean-Sébastien Dufresne, who is on our board,
joining her for Q+A. </font></div>
<div><font color="#000000"><br>
</font></div>
<div><font color="#000000">On a happier note, next winter or
spring we'll be doing another on the power of Citizens'
Assemblies! I wanted to be able to offer both together
as a series (the dark side and light side :) but it
didn't work out that way since I'm still chasing a new
guest speaker on CAs.</font></div>
