I'd like to thank the 120 or so people that joined us for our all-candidates meeting last night for coming out and helping us make the meeting a big success. The Sutherland Theatre is a great venue for these sorts of events, especially when we fill the room as we did last night.
Along with their opening and closing remarks the 12 candidates gave us a total of 87 responses to 21 questions in two hours. We heard from each candidate multiple times on different topics (governance, funding, personalized learning etc) and I think the event gave everyone a chance to showcase their talent, interests, philosophy and experience for the audience. It was a fast paced event (no hockey game, but pretty frenetic for an ACM) and I thank both the audience and the candidates for putting up with our tight timing and active microphone management.
Still we didn't get to all the questions and not everyone was able to attend so for those that missed it and to try get answers to those questions we didn't get to we will be posting all the questions we received at the door and the ones we had prepared for the candidates on the blog. We have invited all the candidates to send us their responses, which we will post on the blog next week, in time to help you select the candidates you wish to vote for.
