Catch 22 Campaign Launched Today

The Catch 22 Harper Conservatives campaign is a grassroots effort to help defeat the Conservative government in the next election. The aim is to challenge people who don't normally vote to go and vote especially, the young and the older generation.

In Ottawa, the group is concentrating on two communities where Conservatives won the ridings: Ottawa-Orleans and Ottawa-West Nepean. The first meeting was held today to discuss how to engage those who do not vote to go and vote.




The question of endorsement was raised, as well as the necessity to do strategic voting. Not everyone agreed to this idea but one thing did unite everyone: the urgency of ensuring that Stephen Harper does not, in any way, win a majority in the next elections.

For those who are interested in doing their bit of civic engagement in a positive, non-partisan and grassroots manner, you can go to Catch 22 website and join: http://catch22campaign.ca/
