Event Details

The Sault Youth Association and ChangeCamp Sault have teamed up to engage citizens and candidates in a series of community cafés before the municipal election. The Election Café aims to get people to the table to connect, discuss, and prioritize ideas for a better Sault Ste. Marie.

What is an Election Café?

The format is simple. Gather together in a café-style setting, having conversations around small tables. It’s like civic speed dating. Everyone participates in a series of short, conversations with candidates and other citizens, building on each other's ideas for what kind of community we want and what it will take to get there. Ideas can range from the economy, health care, the arts, or the environment.

On-the-job-evaluation

Candidates will demonstrate how they can work collaboratively toward a common objective, to bring out the best in the ideas of others while also finding ways to effectively communicate their own. They'll have to make real choices around what to do and when. Real stuff, the kind of work they'll need to do if they are elected. Citizens are a vital part of the conversation and will have to do the same.
