Green Party at Marda Gras
The most common question we’re asked this morning? “Aren’t you guys dead?”
We’re tabling for the morning shift here at Marda Gras (on 33rd Ave SW in Marda Loop), and it is indeed a fine day to be outside.
The “dead” party we are being asked about is the provincial green party. Natalie Odd is a Federal Green Party candidate for the riding of Calgary-Centre. The two organizations do not have anything to do with each other. It is certainly helpful for us to learn not everyone is aware of this fact. They have always been different parties, with different constitutions.
And offered up by Alvin Shier of Canmore, “Your riding offices should have phone numbers that can be found in the phone book.”
We then picked up our Natalie Odd brochure, and sure enough… no phone number. As Alvin points out, not everyone uses a computer as their primary means of communication. We’ll get on that and update our materials once we’ve got a Calgary number.
If you’re attending Marda Gras, be sure to stop by and say hello. We’re looking for feedback, and happy to talk politics.
