I’d rather be GovCamping!
This morning I read tweets about Australian Senator Kate Lundy speaking at Gov 2.0 Expo in Washington, DC and couldn’t help but think about the upcoming opportunity in Ottawa next week at Canada GovCamp.
One of the slogans for the event is “I’d rather be GovCamping.” In fact, I’ve just seen the logo that we’ll be using as placeholders on fusedlogic.tv. What’s really going on here of course has little to do with roasting hotdogs or marshmallows over an open fire. Instead, the expectation is to build a national dialogue surrounding Government 2.0.
If we can attract new audience members at the decision-maker level of government on June 1st that’s great. If those new audience members agree to take the Open Government policy discussion forward into their federal boardrooms, provincial legislatures, municipal councils and administrative offices, then we’re winning this challenge of momentum building and that’s even better.
How can you help?
Government 2.0 is about people taking action. Not only elected officials and administration but of course everyday citizens and residents. You and me. To that end, we’d like to encourage you to use the embed code we’ll be providing and insert that in a prominent place on your website or blog. Help spread the word about Government 2.0 in Canada and abroad at a grass roots level. Help others understand that here in Canada, we care about a more efficient, transparent, and collaborative government system. With that in mind, I have another slogan for Canada GovCamp - “Carry the stream…”

The Great (Edmonton) Airport Debate
The debate between closing and maintaining the Edmonton City Centre Airport (YXD) has heated up as of late. With City Councilors set to make a decision on July 8, opinion is still widely divided between the two view points.
With that in mind, fusedlogic will be hosting the “Great Airport Debate” at our studio in Sherwood Park. We currently have Mack Male (creator of notmyairport.ca) and Dave MacLean (creator of saveourairport.ca) lined up to continue a discussion they began last week, but were unable to continue due to time restraints. Well, we don’t have any of those here. As well, we may be adding a few more guests to sit on the discussion panel – we’ll update this post as soon as any are confirmed. Read more
