Dear Eleanor,<br>
<br>
Some Council of Canadians supporters in the Kitchener-Waterloo area would like to start up a new local chapter to tackle social justice issues related to the Council’s campaign areas of water, health care, trade, democracy and energy and climate justice. Read more about our campaigns on our website at <a href="http://www.canadians.org" target="_blank">canadians.org</a>.<br>
<br>
We will be holding a public meeting on Wednesday, October 19 at 7:00 p.m. to start this exciting process. Please join us to learn more about taking action with like-minded people who want to make a difference and have the energy and determination to make it happen! We will provide information on various ways you can participate in the chapter – from following the work online, joining a listserv to receive locally-relevant email bulletins, to becoming an active member of the campaigns and elected committees.<br>
