Contribute your Ideas for a Roundtable on E-Democracy

On June 11, 2009, I will be leading a "Roundtable on E-Democracy" on Parliament Hill in Ottawa for parliamentarians . At that meeting, I want to present and discuss the ideas that I heard people talking about at ChangeCamp Ottawa. But instead of just writing an outline for a presentation/discussion based on the topics that I think are important in terms of citizen engagement, I thought I would use some of the very technology that has sparked an interest in citizen participation, like EtherPad.com.
So if you're interested in how changing technologies, trends, behaviours, expectations and standards present challenges and solutions for citizen engagement with government in Canada, please head over to this very easy-to-use page at Etherpad.com and contribute your thoughts. And please pass on the link -- the more people who contribute, the more I can bring your thoughts to decision makers on the Hill.
When you get there, please feel free to add to the list of topics, take topics out, move them around, restructure the list, or even suggest formats for delivering the information to the intended audience. If you want to, you can do it anonymously. If you leave me your name or handle, I'll give you credit at the Roundtable.
Once again, you can find the page to edit right here.
Thank you,
Andy
