From Pirate Party of Canada
19:47:34 MikkelPaulson: okay, I'll call the meeting to order
19:47:41 MikkelPaulson: hopefully the others will show up shortly
19:48:05 MikkelPaulson: at least a quorum would be nice, but no motions at hand anyway
19:48:36 MikkelPaulson: Stephane and I have discussed a bit of it privately, but since we're
on the record now: JeffColeman will be filing his nomination papers first thing tomorrow
19:49:03 MikkelPaulson: so if all goes well he will be registered, and us with him, within
48 hours
19:49:23 MikkelPaulson: hopefully the Returning Officer works on weekends, because
nominations close on Monday at 2
19:49:44 Stephane Bakhos: hopefully the verification process is quick
19:49:51 MikkelPaulson: Nuitari: how are we set up to pay the auditor beyond the $250
subsidy provided by Elections Canada?
19:50:15 MikkelPaulson: the handbook does say max 48-hour turnaround
19:50:31 MikkelPaulson: and the paperwork doesn't ask for phone numbers for signatories, so
I'm assuming they won't be contacted individually
19:51:18 Stephane Bakhos: we're ok
19:52:10 MikkelPaulson: so as soon as the nomination goes through we'll transfer the lump
sum of our warchest into Jeff's agent's account?
19:52:55 Stephane Bakhos: yes
19:53:36 MikkelPaulson: by the way, the expense report I gave you for the trip was a bit
off; I forgot to include the cost of parking at the airport ($8) and my phone roaming
charges (still trying to get a statement from WIND, but probably around $15)
19:54:06 MikkelPaulson: once I get the doc from WIND I'll send you the full schwack of
receipts
19:54:22 Stephane Bakhos: ok
19:55:06 MikkelPaulson: on the flip side, it looks like the hostel overcharged me
19:55:12 MikkelPaulson: so I'm getting a partial refund from them as well
19:55:24 Stephane Bakhos: cool
19:55:41 MikkelPaulson: charged a 5% booking fee then 100% at the door
19:56:07 Stephane Bakhos: good thing you spotted it
19:56:10 MikkelPaulson: yeah
19:56:29 MikkelPaulson: something seemed wrong when I got there, but the discrepancy wasn't
huge and I didn't have the documentation handy
19:56:41 MikkelPaulson: long story short, expect about $650 all told, including the plane
ticket refund you already gave me
19:56:56 Stephane Bakhos: ok
19:57:09 MikkelPaulson: or hang on to that much, should come in a bit under
19:57:54 MikkelPaulson: now, as soon as Jeff's paperwork comes through, we'll want to start
printing off election material
19:58:12 MikkelPaulson: I'll have him put together a wishlist and we can see about drawing
up some flyers and brochures and such
19:59:17 Stephane Bakhos: yeah
20:00:11 MikkelPaulson: I had wanted to cover a bit more strategy tonight and definitely
quite a bit of PR, but since we're missing our PR guy and you and I have already discussed a
bunch of strategy, I don't know that there's much point
20:00:34 MikkelPaulson: anything else you wanted to throw out there?
20:00:49 Stephane Bakhos: not really
20:01:12 MikkelPaulson: okay
20:01:25 MikkelPaulson: well, please do get me something for the bio, even if it's just a
C+P from your director application
20:01:37 MikkelPaulson: I haven't written anything either, which I should get around to doing
20:01:59 MikkelPaulson: so far all I have are Craig and Jeff
20:02:39 Stephane Bakhos: start putting them online
20:02:47 Stephane Bakhos: btw
20:02:55 MikkelPaulson: have to fix the WordPress theme first
20:03:03 Stephane Bakhos: the reorder for the bumper stickers is finally in
20:03:06 Stephane Bakhos: er
20:03:08 Stephane Bakhos: sent and paid
20:03:13 MikkelPaulson: awesome
20:03:16 MikkelPaulson: how many?
20:03:24 Stephane Bakhos: 1000 english
20:03:34 MikkelPaulson: cool
20:03:37 Stephane Bakhos: no french one in that reorder
20:03:38 MikkelPaulson: still got plenty of French huh?
20:03:42 Stephane Bakhos: yeah
20:03:53 Stephane Bakhos: got to go
20:03:56 MikkelPaulson: sure
20:04:00 MikkelPaulson: well I think we're done here anyway
20:04:04 Stephane Bakhos: meeting adjourned
