The expected turn out by candidates was abysmally low. Only a total of 6 candidates for all five ridings combined committed to come. We also just found out that a number of the Green candidates and supporters will be in Guelph for a townhall with Elizabeth May and Gord Miller that evening.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">We do not want to put on an event that could be embarrassing for the environmental community because of poor turnout by candidates. Also we do not want to waste your evening by your turning out with the expectation of an opportunity to chat with candidates when so few were coming.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If you know of any people planning to attend, please inform them that it is cancelled.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thanks to Susan for all the effort she put into this. As always, her effort was excellent and valiant. She made reminders, including phone calls to candidates, to try to get them out.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Enjoy any desserts that you have already made for the event. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Once the election is over, we will plan our fall meeting of GREN. I'll be in touch with you about that. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">John</div><div class=""><br class=""><div apple-content-edited="true" class="">
