Election readiness event – So You Think You Can Run
Dear Members,
This past Saturday, the JCA’s Political Action Committee (PAC) hosted its campaign and election readiness event, So You Think You Can Run, and it was a success!
Potential candidates and their supporters heard from experts about how to assemble their teams, craft their message, develop voter strategies and much more. Matthew Green, Councillor, City of Hamilton; Rob Davis, Campaign Strategist and former City of Toronto Councillor; and Tiffany Gooch, Political Strategist, shared their invaluable knowledge with enthusiastic future municipal, provincial and federal candidates while Idil Burale, Community Advocate and former candidate for Toronto City Council, kept the discussion on track as facilitator.
Our community has the capacity and the talent to bring forward a new generation of leaders; Saturday’s session was the first step towards action for many attendees.
Sincere thanks to Idil, Matthew, Rob, and Tiffany for sharing their time and knowledge, and to Danielle Dowdy and the JCA PAC for organizing this event.
IT’S OUR TIME!
