There are 14 community associations in Ward 14 - we are asking each one for help. The information provided here will help keep the message consistent for each community.
What to Tell Everyone
We ask that you answer:
who - residents and businesses - come meet your ward 14 councillors
what - online debate and a request for everyone to submit a question
why - our civic election is coming - make an informed decision and get involved
where - online on YouTube via ward14debate.com (this website)
when - Saturday October 9, 2021 at 7:00 p.m.
To make this super easy - scroll down for a sample Mail Chimp or Mass Email you can copy/paste to your members along with the suggested image
Social Media
An easy link to lead your residents and businesses to the information is:
Use your social media platforms to spread the word, especially Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Also consider mass emailing to your community and members.
Bold Signs
Bold Signs are $115 each - we are challenging each community centre to sponsor 2 signs.
Here is what we suggest will fit on a bold sign:
We are asking that you call today to get your sign installed, especially since advanced voting is Oct. 4-10. Even if the signs up are up later than the allowed 2 weeks (e.g., Sept. 24to Oct. 9), and past the live-streamed event on Oct. 9, the YouTube video of the debate will be available on our website up until the general election on Oct. 20.
Submit CA Questions
We are asking for Community Associations to submit a few questions for the candidates that pertain to community association/centre. You can submit your question to the ‘Councillor Ward 14 Question Submission’ Google Docs website. Please choose “community centre” as the type of question
