Feel free to search our member's list for "Maple", "Coquitlam", or other communities through the simple (or advanced) search box, and invite these folks into your initiative directly. Your communications to them will go through Ning's email system (just like this message), and you will have to agree to share email addresses upon connecting.
We don't want necessary to lose them, but we are all better off if they are active locally.
With you, we are now at least 8 official TT and 1 muller initiative in BC. It is a great start to a better-run, cleaner, and more enjoyable province.
We just need the Evergreen Line now to connect us more sustainably (depending on how the build it...if ever).
