Steven Harper and Iggy need to educate themselves on what's going on. I received a note from Michael Ignatieff and was sorely disappointed. They asked for ideas, volunteers or money. I clicked on idea started typing and at 50 words was cut off. Don't engage people in democracy if you aren't prepared to interact. The past few weeks prove that people want to discuss politics and definately have opinions. Voices want to be heard and the net allows people to quickly disseminate their ideas so quickly -- and the current political strategists here in Cananda are way behind the times. Check out what Obama is doing at change.gov it's amazing and inspiring. join in the conversation write to your local politicians and Get Involved....

The 21st Century Citizen. How do we Get Involved Today?
For the past ten years my partner at qmedia solutions and I have been doing a lot of pro bono work for a number of not-for-profits and charities. We've really enjoyed it but we wanted to do more. First we wanted to tell stories about some of the amazing people who had inspired us. And so we started with TV storytelling and on October 26th Get Involved had it's World Premiere on TVO-- Ontario's premiere public broadcaster. So far we have produced 25 profiles of amazing innovators, social entrepreneurs and activists. Take a look at our stories. Tell us what you think. Tell us about people or organizations that inspire you. During our research we sensed a growing movement growing all around us-- people realizing their skills and their expertise can be used not only to bring them financial rewards but deeper connection and meaning in their lives. And so our next step was to concieve of a website that would transform the inspiration of the television profiles and help propell people into action and Getinvolved.ca was born.
