The SDC has an exciting idea for bringing people together after so many long months of Covid separation which they have invited us to join in. Basically, the SDC is organizing living room community pop up events that are Covid safe & a catalyst to having conversations with one another. Heather is very interested using the events to engage the community in conversations about electoral reform and Citizen's Assemblies. <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>I tried to send Heather's email with attachments but the email was too large and went to the moderator. If you would like to see the attachments, please contact me and I will forward them to you. Basically, the SDC will set up a living room anywhere ( park, drive way, unused parking lot) and bring activity trunks to get the conversation rolling. They want to partner with groups like ours who want to have conversations with our community. <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>I think that this is a great opportunity for us to partner with the SDC and get back into the community to begin having conversations about electoral reform again.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>What do you think?<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Kind regards,<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Sharon <o:p></o:p></span></p><div style='margin-top:1.5pt;outline:none'><div id="gmail-:66l"><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-line-height-alt:4.5pt;background:#E8EAED'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black'><img border=0 width=1 height=1 style='width:.0104in;height:.0104in' id="_x0000_i1025" src="https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/images/cleardot.gif"></span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div><div style='margin-top:11.25pt;margin-bottom:11.25pt;font-size:0.875rem' id="gmail-:66e"><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:Roboto'>Attachments area</span><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:Roboto'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
