SUMMARY:Elections 101 Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The rumours are getting louder. A fall election seems very likely.\nAre you ready to engage your community?\nIn 2019 we saw one of the highest voter turnouts in recent history. But still, 9 million eligible electors did not vote! Almost ⅓ of all eligible voters.\nWe can do better but it will take all of us.\nThis last year has been incredibly hard. The pandemic has exposed existing inequalities and we are starting to reckon with the systemic racism that has prevented many Canadians from participating in our democracy. Events around the world and just to our south have clearly demonstrated that elections matter and that votes can change the world.\nJoin us Tuesday, August 31 from 1:00 – 2:30 PM EDT for an election readiness workshop to equip community-based organizations and local leaders with the tools and resources needed for non-partisan voter outreach and engagement.\nWhat you will learn:\n\nHow to engage first-time and infrequent voters.\nTools for social media campaigns and in-person activities.\nHow to demystify the voting process.\nChanges to voting as a result of the pandemic\n\nWhat you will get:\n\nA virtual toolkit with the latest info sheets from Elections Canada\nSamples of effective social media campaigns\nA chance to ask questions\nRegular updates with the latest materials from The Exchange and Elections Canada between now and Election Day.\n\nFinally, you will have a chance to meet people who share your passion for building a vibrant, inclusive, and just democracy in Canada.\n
