1. RE: 🔽 I CAN reveal more

I've always wanted to know what it'd be like to contribute, at a high level, to a political campaign

I've often offered my strategic political communications skills, but the rare times I got a reply, it was to stuff envelopes

2. One day, I saw someone being interviewed and thought: "I'm kind of impressed. This is the kind of person for whom it might be cool to contribute my skills, if they'd be open to it."

So I figured I'd give voice to that thought and I put it out into the universe.

3. Well, wouldn't you know... that person saw it and contacted me (!!!).

We spoke on the phone shortly after. This person was impressed and said they'd be happy to have me join the team.

Then nothing really happened for over a month.

4. Then I got another call, from someone on the team, but I honestly didn't know what to make of it, or where I stood, after it.

Then more time goes by.

Recently, I got an invite to a Zoom call (it took place yesterday).

5. It was a meeting with the sub-team responsible for Outreach to and Networking with Francophone Communities.

It seems I impressed again.

And I've been invited to join.

6. So seems I'll get to play a role in helping this person to (hopefully) secure the nomination to lead one of Canada's federal political parties!

And if it works and I do well, MAYBE, I'll be asked to help again come federal election time

And that *is* ALL I can say (for now)
