[homeles_ot-l] Emails for Ottawa Candidates FW: Election Questions & Meetings - your help needed!

[Lynne Browne]

Hi everyone, 

 

I’ve attached a list of Ottawa Candidates with their emails to make it
easier to email and ask our housing, homelessness and health questions. This
list and a list of links to the all major parties candidates are now on our
website with our election questions and a request to the community for help
HYPERLINK
"http://www.endhomelessnessottawa.ca/"http://www.endhomelessnessottawa.ca/ .

 

In the next day or so some of you may wish to ask that a question on housing
and homelessness be used in the Party Leaders’ televised debates. You can
send your request to HYPERLINK
"mailto:question at electiondebate08.ca"question at electiondebate08.ca.

Subject: Election Questions & Meetings - your help needed! 
Importance: High

 

Please Circulate Widely

 

Hello Everyone,

 

The Alliance to End Homelessness has prepared six questions on housing,
homelessness and health for the Federal Election. We invite you to ask them
and to share them during the rest of campaign. Some background information
is include in the Questions attachment. 

 

Ideas for using these questions: Take the questions to all-candidates
meetings. Send candidates emails and ask for answers. Use them in
conversations with campaign workers looking for your vote. Share them with
voters (friends, neighbours, colleagues). Write letters to the newspapers.
Use your imagination!

Lynne
