“Let’s Get the Party Re-Started!”
Liberal AGM ‘07

Well this is what I have to say after attending the extremely well run and informative Liberal Party of Canada (Manitoba) Executive meeting tonight chaired by President Sharon MacArthur. I have been asked to provide a synopsis of the AGM Agenda to date - well here it is.

The March 9, 10 and 11th event for the Canad Inns Polo Park is going to be an exciting, energetic meeting.

To start we will be hosting for the First time a Blog/Internet Location this facility will be Chaired and run by Federal Revenue Chair Don Beemer.

The agenda will start out Friday night with another First Ever - All Liberal Event chaired by Darryl Balasko where every Liberal in the province will be invited and welcomed for a night of entertainment and socialization. The theme is "Lets Get the Party Re-Started!" and we have put together events and happenings to stimulate change and renewal for our Liberal philosophy. Saturday will see Policy Discussions in the morning and Election Readiness sessions in the afternoon. The Election Readiness session will have both our internet guru Liberal "Blog King" Jason Cherniak whom has been widely acknowledged as the internet energy behind our new leaders victory December 3rd and the architect of Martha Hall Findlay's Big Red Bus -Quitto Maggi. Then a Media Information and Education session will be coordinated by Award winning Canadian Director and Life Long Liberal Don Marks. The Saturday Night Dinner will see our new leader Stephane Dion speak to his agenda and our changing party.

Sunday promises to equalling stimulating with Party Elections and a Constitutional Plenary Session slated to happen.

Our AGM committee is reflective of the changing nature of the Liberal party here in Manitoba and has elements from all 8 Leadership Campaigns BUT in keeping with our "include everyone attitude" if you have suggestions please forward them along and we will see what we can do. Tonight's Executive Meeting saw Jane Fudge offer the suggestion of a Heritage Display of Liberal traditions and personalities which we hope the Committee agrees to at our next meeting.

I like it it is fun and we have a great team putting the AGM together !
