Description

Our 30's come with a better understanding of policy, and how our lives are shaped by it. That said, we realize how important it is for us to get involved, because if we don't, we lose out on our opportunity to facilitate change. This episode, sweet listeners, is about civic action. With us today is Amanda Alvaro, a political commentator on CBC's Power and Politics. As a former adviser to several Ministers, Premiers, and Prime Minister, Amanda has worked as a political strategist, analyst, marketer and communications expert for nearly 15 years, most recently the Trudeau campaign in 2015. She is the co-founder of award winning PR firm Pomp and Circumstance, founder of Artbound, a charity that develops art programs in countries all over the world, AND she sits on the board for Rethink Breast Cancer and Canadian Art. Today will be a non-partisan discussion and our aim is to bring to your attention the upcoming Canadian Federal Election on October 21 - and what you can do to make an informed vote.
