Well after many months of planning, BRIDGE Canada 2013 started today in Ottawa! What a great class of participants from all across Canada, the United States, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Afghanistan! Special thanks to our facilitators Helena Catt and Adolfo Cayuso who are really challenging our thoughts about what is an election and the electoral process. Tomorrow we start with International Election Standards, expectations of electoral systems, building blocks of electoral systems, different electoral systems, and choosing an electoral system.
Also, thanks to our co-sponsoring organization CANADEM, who have been a fantastic help in assisting making this event happen!
