I am a new liberal. Joined last year after the massive defeat. I did not view this as a setback, but rather an opportunity to become involved as the party now seemed open to a re-evaluation of itself and become a party that the citizens of this country could identify with and identified with them, a party of principles that…[En afficher davantage]-
Hi Edward,
Thanks for the great post. You’re right that the activity seems to have slowed down a bit here in the community. It’s nothing to worry about because folks probably just need a bit of a breather after the sustained excitement and passionate (to say the least!) discussions that took place here during the leadership race.
As for…[En afficher davantage]

How about add the ability to donate from Paypal. Some of the leadership candidates had it and it makes donating very easy. Liberal Party of Canada doesn’t and it’s much less motivating to write and mail a cheque. Should we really be promoting the use of credit cards?-
PAYPAL would be great.
I cannot count the number of times I was going to donate but did not have my credit card info at hand.
Probably came back to donate 50% of the time. I know I am not alone in doing this. Once the moment is past it is easy to forget about it.
I promise to make an additional donation to the party as soon as I get…[En afficher davantage]

Hi William, Thank you for the feedback, we’ll take it under consideration. We chose community because we felt it encompassed what the Liberal Membership was, a community.

Is anyone else finding these discussion threads to be a bit dysfunctional today? I’m finding most of the reply buttons aren’t working at all and even when I do get one to work it takes several minutes before it finishes processing. This isn’t convenient at all.-

People are losing sight of the fact we still have to get people coming to Liberal events, fix the EDAs and attract individuals who will want to run.

All these separate topics should be made collapsable threads, and should be collapsed by default.
Also, the forum site is extremely slow.

Serg, you idea is great. Having to scroll down 70 plus comments that are usually 3 or 4 people debating each other is getting to be rediculous.

I really like the idea of all main topics being collapsed by default.

Very sure more people will show up if party members were informed of meet and great opportunities before the fact. #leadershiprace #website
-
It might also help if the Party issued a news release as each candidate becomes ”official”. Karen McCrimmon was declared as such on Friday, but not a peep from HQ. So far, the mainstream media only seems to care about the 3 MPs in the race – it doesn’t help when the Party doesn’t seem to want to promote anyone else.
-
Sad isn’t it, we can all get emails when money is needed, but nothing else that may help us choose our next leader, or indeed want input into important issues.
It seems there is a wilful intent to keep us in the dark. So much for wanting our input.

You can find a list of official candidates and relevant events here: http://www.liberal.ca/leadership-2013/. André Brisebois can confirm, but I believe anyone who is an official candidate can post events to Liberal.ca, but they have to choose to do so.

Well said Jennifer. The most important thing is that Liberals feel free to express their opinions here. Accurate first names is a wise compromise on this issue.

Jennifer:
I understand the concerns about privacy and again people have a choice. If you are concerned, don’t comment.I strongly believe that the world will be a much better place for my children if people have to put their name to what they say. I for one do not place anywhere near equal weight or equal consideration when someone says…[En afficher davantage]

Do not hide with a nickname, I agree. But publicly voicing your views does have a downside. For me, I am not employed in a position that my livelihood could be jeopardized; my employer isn’t examining every piece of online data about me, etc. But that isn’t the case for everyone.

By the way, I hope you do not assume whomever owns a business is independently wealthy.
As a percentage,…[En afficher davantage]-
Tough one this but i’m with Bruno on this Jenn. I don’t think we should allow ourselves to be intimidated by negative possibilities for posting under our true names.That should be even more of a consideration the higher ones climbs up the responsibility ladder – we need to be brave!
Is there a possibility of compromise? Can we allow supporters…[En afficher davantage]

I don’t think use the first name only means the same thing as anonymity. Obviously, the full name remains available and can be looked up by anyone on the inside.
It does however protect you from a troll chasing you down easily (if your name isn’t Smith like mine). Frankly, when I was young and single I wasn’t concerned with privacy, but if I…[En afficher davantage]

It seems to always change back when I log out. Is this a current problem?

I tried it…didn’t work.

Sorry that it didn’t work Fred,
I believe that we just fixed it! (You might have to go change your display name again)
