(Word Fest + Calgary + Edmonton + Michael Ignatieff) - Talk of Toronto Liberals' Anointment of Philosopher King= Good Exposure

Re: (Word Fest + Calgary + Edmonton + Michael Ignatieff) - Talk of Toronto Liberals' Anointment of Philosopher King = Good Exposure

The dates of the Word Fest here in Calgary this year are, October 12 - 16. They are prepared to work with us, to see if there is some sort of connection we can build with them, for Michael Ignatief's tour to Calgary, Edmonton, and maybe Red Deer.Either as an event as part of their plans, as a complementary event, or an event to help promote their event prior to it starting.

What you have got to do is subdue the talk or spin of Michael Ignatief being the darling boy of the Toronto Liberal Chattering Class.

If Michael Ignatief has the chops, have him run in a Calgary riding. Calgary South Centre or Calgary North Centre are ripe for the pickin's. If done right, and not with Daryl Friedlander, or ' Freedloader,' in the way.

Having him run as a Liberal anywhere outside of downtown Toronto, is like asking the guy who was setting the tables for the last sitting in the dining room of the Titanic to go arrange the chairs on the poop deck.

If you and Michael are serious about him being a national Liberal Leader, which means the bits of the country between downtown Toronto and Downtown Vancouver, give me a call.

I am sure we can make this a hit, and I could see fit to doing it for a reduced fee.

If John Ralston Saul can sell 1,000 books and 800 tickets at the downtown Knox United Church here in Calgary I am sure Michael can do the same.
