A Website for the NoProrogue Movement
As the Facebook group "Canadians Against Proroguing Parliament" began to approach 100,000 members (it currently sits at about 95,500) it struck me that the movement was constrained by Facebook's walled garden. Naturally, I did something about it.
Tonight I was happy to flip the switch on NoProrogue.ca - a new website intended to take the anti-prorogue movement beyond Facebook. The site is completely community-managed - anyone can contribute blog posts and manage local event pages. Seriously.
In the few minutes since the first blog post went up, it's been retweeted a bunch and traffic is already out-pacing this blog!
If you think prorogation was wrong, give the site a visit - and perhaps tell us all why in a blog post!
