<p class="MsoNormal">Hi GRENers,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just sent these questions this afternoon to all
the candidates, except for school board which I just don't have
time for. We will need to post the responses on the GREN website
and also share with others. Let me know if and how you can help do
that. <br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Susan K<br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Candidate,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We respect and appreciate your decision to
compete in this municipal election--an important and accessible
yet underappreciated level of government. Please reply to this
email with your responses to the following questions by<b> October
7, 2022</b> to allow us time to share before election day.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> 1. Cities/urban centres are responsible for
80% of our greenhouse gas emissions. What is in your plans to
reduce that? <br>
<br>
2. What are your plans to support a 15-Minute City where
everything we need can be accessed by foot or bike in that time
and reduce vehicle use? <br>
<br>
3. The <a href="https://www.kateraworth.com/doughnut/"

Economy</a> is a working model that addresses both social and
environmental issues to create a livable future for everyone
without exceeding Earth’s ability to provide. What are your
priorities to meet these challenges?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Optional question: Do you have campaign
donations from speculators/developers and, if so, what percentage
of your funding?<br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sincerely,</p>
