Malahat Drop Done!

We've finished delivering a few hundred flyers to Malahat residents. Now we're off to Nanaimo! - Chris

The "Duck" Quacks

The Duck's engine is overheating so we're leaving it to cool down for a bit while we head out with members of the Malahat - Juan de Fuca BC Liberals riding association to drop off some more flyers!

Lunch

Just stopping for Lunch at the Arbutus Ridge Country Club in Malahat! - Chris

Day two (round two)

After a wildly successful night, we're now on day two!

We started the morning with a much needed breakfast. I had two pieces of toast and tea (speaks for last night). Breakfast was served with hilarious recounts from our outing last night - good times were had.

After breakfast, we all boarded the RV (now known within my sphere of influence as "the duck") and made our way out to a nice residential area. We spent the better part of the morning flyer dropping. Chris and I even spent some time knocking on doors and talking to the locals.

We're now on our way to Malahat and then onto a Dinner Social in Nanaimo before ending the day in Campbell River.

I'll keep you all updated!

P.S. Apparently we're getting over one hundred hits a day! Can I get a Woo?

Over and out,
Wisam

And it all begins...

Road to Victory Tour - Vancouver Island

So, here we all are. Twelve fearless young men and women about to embark into the unknown. Our ferry has been delayed half an hour for unclear reasons. As our inspirational leader (according to Stirling), Chris Sandve, leaves to try and find out more info, most of us are hanging out in the Tsawwa... Argh, the problem of blogging from a blackberry - as I was in the middle of writing the first part of this post, Chris came to herd us all back to board the ferry. (Sorry for the convolutedness.)

We're now on the ferry and on our way! Excitement is in the air. Our RV, wishfully coined "the party bus", will be meeting us on the other side. We're not sure whether to expect a shimmering five star hotel on wheels or an old slimey shipwreck. Ill let you all know. Keep your fingers crossed for the former!

On a final note, Chris wanted us to run all blog posts past him before submitting them. This post however, as expected from me, has not been sanctioned. Take that Sandve. Muhaha.

Until next time,
Wisam Abdulla

Super Saturday!

On Saturday October 27th, the BC Liberals held a "Super Saturday" where teams of volunteers delivered thousands of flyers to residents all across British Columbia.

Over 45 members of the BC Young Liberals participated in "Super Saturday" and large teams of youth were organized in many key ridings.

Afterwards, volunteers were treated to a free social event hosted by their local BC Liberals Riding Association, which gave everyone a chance to relax and get to know each other.

Here are some photos from "Super Saturday!"
