MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD
The NDG Community Council is working to improve residents' participation by offering fun accessible ways to have your voice heard. We've started the Get Involved series to expand areas of resident mobilization through Surveys, Lunch Clubs/Communi-Tea and Public Assemblies.
SURVEYS

2015
This year, with the objective of reaching out to local business in NDG, we created a new initiative “Communi-Tea” a space for entrepreneurs and businesses to connect and discuss different issues related to the development of their sector. These public meetings are held either in the early morning or in the evening to encourage their participation.
The focus of the meetings is on the Local Economy (ex. revitalisation of commercial streets , buying local). We had three (3) meetings year 2015 -2016:
As part of the NDG Community Action Plan 2015, public assemblies were organised to highlight the plan and the importance of working in partnership. We also highlighted great programs which were created during the year such as “Intervenant Communautaire Scolaire, “French Class for new immigrants”, and the “ Arts & Culture Table”.

2014
As part of the NDG Community Action Plan 2014, six public assemblies were organised during the summer of 2014. The objective of these assemblies was to provide a space for organisations to present their actions to residents and create a space for exchange and feedback. Another well-known and very popular activity was the Meet the Candidates event organised by the Council during the School elections in 2014. A public assembly on transportation this year sparked the formation of a new transportation committee in NDG. Another assembly focused on wealth inequality and austerity.
