Cosmopolitan Looking For Help

Posted on Monday, August 09 at 21:40 by sthompson
Help support social advocacy political representatation on these underepresented public policy areas via the establishment of "focus groups". Cosmopolitan as a "pilot project" is an "experiment in democracy". We also encourage applicants who speak diverse languages. Qualifications: Applicants should be passionate and articulate (orally and/or in writing) about social and/or environmental issues. No formal political experience is necessary. More about Political Cafe "Focus Groups": Political Cafe "focus groups" are envisioned as pre-scheduled/pre-approved but fun get-togethers with pilot project participants, i.e. students from your university or other members of your community, which could be over coffee, pasteries, (or alternative choices of foods and beverages at a cafe or possibly another local around or near campus) to mutually and critically explore fresh progressive approaches to policies. It is NOT envisioned as booooring meetings to pendantically argue over motions or other such formailities in a sometimes hostile milieu. Cosmopolitan Pilot Project can provide pre-approved additional funding for ordering donoughts or coffee. internet site reference: http://www.agoracosmopolite.com Cosmopolitan Pilot Project TO APPLY: e-mail: agoracosmopolite@on.aibn.com

    Goody, another party to split votes...and an NDP-clone at that.

    They asked me very nicely to post it, and so I did.

    Generally I agree, but I also think efforts like this can sometimes help keep the official parties honest.

    Agree or not, it's good to know what is out there and also that people still believe enough in our country to try something, even if it does create another party.
