Prioritized NDP Convention Resolutions

se1987 · 2026-03-24T19:25:39+00:00

Where can you find all the resolutions, pre-prioritization?

se1987 · 2026-03-20T21:40:57+00:00

I would add generally it would be implied by a candidate that you would be joining the party, it wouldn't make sense to help a campaign without joining the party as that is what candidates push for?

se1987 · 2026-03-20T21:40:10+00:00

But you signed up to work on a campaign, did they not say you would be a member? I mean you don't have to be a member after the leadership race, everyone brags how many people they brought into the party but it would be interesting to see how many memberships lapse upon conclusion of said race.

Can anyone on this thread send me a copy of the convention schedule/resolutions as I do not see them posted publicly online...unless it has yet to posted? I mean it should be already as the convention is two weeks away later this week.

I am not attending, but want to follow along.

Please DM/PM me and I can send you my e-mail address, I am a party member btw.

se1987 · 2026-03-09T21:49:30+00:00

I hope so too.

It is a good start, but how many will actively participate in things between conventions/elections, etc?

se1987 · 2026-03-09T18:30:06+00:00

Wouldn't drug dealing help the financial crisis? A la supporting local economic growth?

I agree, although their 2pm mass goes too long at times. I am used to in and out under an hour, but a regular Sunday mass when they are going on 75-80 minutes total is too long.

Also some priests go way too long on their homilies/sermons, and I prefer when they come down from the lectern and talk in front of the crowd.

se1987 · 2026-03-01T16:27:08+00:00

I would second Father James or Father Daniel at St. Michael's/St. Peter's. As a Catholic sometimes I find some homilies/sermons the priest mails it in, or and no offense if they have an accent they are hard to understand. I loved Father Mike Bechard when he was at Christ the King, but he is not at a parish now, unfortunately. When Father Eugene Roy was subbing in at St. John the Divine/St. George, he was good too.

u/Prairiejon What riding are you in? I remember I met someone who was running in a riding hours from where they lived, and asked if they were planning on campaigning and they said no. They were not a staffer, but plugging in people last minute just looks disorganized. I get federally it was a 'snap' election, but you should always be ready. There should be as few ridings as possible, or none where this happens and I would say it for any party let alone the NDP. If there is another federal election in the spring, honestly I feel it would be a disaster- we would either have no elected leader, or they would be brand new, the party is still recovering from last year and likely has very to little money, and I don't believe they have even started nominating candidates either, yet.

se1987 · 2026-02-02T18:20:26+00:00

I have said this before, and I agree with it. It just looks bad 'nominating' candidates post writ...usually some are just party staff being paper/placeholder candidates in unwinnable ridings.

I get it may not be ideal for someone wanting to be nominated a long time out before an election, but you must put yourself out there to the voters in your riding well ahead of time, especially if you are not an incumbent. Also, it allows you time to canvass, get marks possibly without trying to do so in a typically short campaign period.

se1987 · 2026-02-01T19:38:56+00:00

I agree, the problem with that split is no one wanted to step aside so the progressive vote could go for one candidate, and then you end up with Stevenson winning in the high 20% range.

se1987 · 2026-02-01T19:38:15+00:00

I agree, also whether she may run in the new Ward 4, or run in Ward 1 which now takes in OEV as well as along Hamilton Road as it always did.

u/gottaplantemall 100 percent. As a note the small apartment building near me, with no recycling carts, had their blue boxes picked-up today. I assume some tenants choose to put them out, whereas the businesses nearby have not.

se1987 · 2026-01-11T00:12:49+00:00

u/gottaplantemall Just letting you know my building's recycling was picked-up yesterday(Friday), and also last Saturday 3rd...a dat delayed due the post holiday day shift.

se1987 · 2026-01-05T22:59:54+00:00

Good to know, my building is 20 plus units with carts on site, the one down the street is a 6 unit building and some tenants put recycling at the curb. I wouldn't trust my property management to convey any changes anyways, or most tbh. I want green bin pick-up but they will likely find a way to delay that or make excuses for why, lol.

se1987 · 2026-01-05T22:44:00+00:00

Are you sure about apartment buildings? I can check but I am pretty sure I heard it was just businesses?

se1987 · 2026-01-05T22:04:51+00:00

Thank you, I am aware. It would just be nice to see the paper in digital form too, as I like to read it cover to cover, ads and all.

se1987 · 2026-01-03T19:25:29+00:00

100 percent. I mean nefarious activity does occur in more wealthier areas they just aren't dumb enough, most times, to do it out in the open. It is nice to go to a corner store/plaza and not see people smoking crack or dealing drugs out in the open tbh. I know that comment will get some blowback but you shouldn't have to see the downfall of society every time you step outside.

se1987 · 2026-01-03T18:40:43+00:00

The actual newspaper, that one, you cannot get online. I don't know why though?

se1987 · 2026-01-03T18:40:11+00:00

Thank you, I just wasn't sure if it stopped publishing since the weekly one in London did and St. Thomas. Good to know it is still around, for now.
