Metro Council Resolutions Meeting

Linda and I went to a Metro Council resolutions meeting last night.

Metro Council is busily constituting itself to act as a collective voice and a place where the 416 ridings can work together on shared issues. At the moment, it's acting as an informal forum, but it's good to be setting up more lines of communication. As an organization, it cannot yet pass or endorse resolutions, but we shared ours and saw what some other ridings brought along. (Trinity-Spadina and Toronto Centre each had a list they were working on.)

The fact that it's difficult to get access to the existing party policy to see what we're trying to make resolutions to change resonated with some around the table, so even if our resolution doesn't make it to the floor at Convention, it looks like we have some common ground with our neighbouring ridings to press for change.

Our two resolutions have now been officially submitted, by the way.
