The Ottawa Vanier Nomination meeting is less than a week away. It's an exciting contested race. Our guest speaker will be the Green Party's Political Campaign Director Catharine Johannson.
Please come out and help us select who will carry the Green Party banner and represent the members of Ottawa Vanier in the next election.
The meeting is August 20th at the Sandy Hill Community Centre (250 Somerset St E) and will be starting promptly at 7:00pm so we ask that you arrive around 6:30.
There has been a tonne of talk going on lately about the (un)fairness of the current GPO leadership race. There are many concerns some of them valid some not so much. One big concern is that people on the PE are campaigning for a candidate. This can be seen as being very unfair but not everyone agrees. So how do we move forward? How do we get around this issue?
So two papers in BC have now said that Elizabeth will be running in SGI so I'm writing this with that assumption in mind.
Question One: How will you deal with situations where the majority of council disagrees with you regarding an issue/situation you are feel passionately about?
I guess it really comes down to what issues I feel passionate about. My big ones are 1) building a legitimate political grassroots organization, 2) following the member written Constitution and 3) developing a more professional organization.
