Hello all,  First a big thank you for organizing this, and apologies that we have not been able to be more active in the organizing.   We would like to be a sponsoring organization. Julian is putting the info about the meeting onto our website, along with links to OSEA’s election blog and to Green Prosperity, the coalition of Ontario environmental groups that is putting forth their priorities during this election.  We will also send out an announcement of the debate as soon as the location is confirmed, to our mailing list.  Many thanks,  Mary Jane   From: North Waterloo Region Branch [mailto:aco.nwrb at gmail.com]
