Hiya Garth,

This has been discussed in the ICANN circles for a while now and I am very =
eager to see this move forward.  I will also support this from my end (thro=
ugh my non-profit).  I am thinking, however, that since Gareth is our Presi=
dent and also involved with ICANN that it may be better for these e-mails t=
o be vetted through him and supported by the President of our Society.

Just my two cents worth.

Dear Garth Graham,

You are receiving this message as a member of the Internet Society (ISOC) i=
n Canada.


The Internet Society is exploring the possible creation of new ISOC Chapter=
s in Canada, either as province/territory based Chapters or as a larger Cha=
pter. The motivation for this is to provide enhanced opportunities for ISOC=
 members to become involved in issues important to their local community. Y=
ou might be aware that there is only one ISOC Chapter in Canada, namely in =
Qu=E9bec (http://www.isocquebec.org), at the moment. Other ISOC Chapters in=
 Canada went dormant and were closed.

The good news is that a new group has emerged looking into the formation of=
 a new Chapter in Canada (see http://isoccanada.pbworks.com).


WE NEED YOUR HELP


This email is a request for "Expressions of Interest" and to invite you to =
help us create more Internet Society Chapter(s) in Canada. I would thus lik=
e to invite you to complete a short survey before Dec 16, 2012 :


 https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/ISOC-Survey-Canada


If you are interested, you should be able to spend some time as a volunteer=
 helping to shape the future for the Internet Society's Chapter activities =
in Canada. This means taking part in discussions and (online)-meetings that=
 cover what role the Chapter should have in Canada, what activities it shou=
ld undertake to advance the ISOC mission, how it can best serve it's member=
ship and how it can become a true 'multi-stakeholder' group. It takes time =
and effort to run a successful Chapter and a strong team is therefore neede=
d, ideally composed of individuals from many different stakeholder organiza=
tions.


FYI, this email has been sent to all Internet Society members in Canada, in=
cluding members of the ISOC Qu=E9bec Chapter as their feedback is equally i=
mportant.


Please feel free to share this link with other Canadians who could have an =
interest in becoming part of this initiative. This is an open and consultat=
ive process with an invitation to all those interested to join the discussi=
on.  Please invite other stakeholders to join the Internet Society - member=
ship is free and you can sign up to be a part of this discussion at : https=
://portal.isoc.org/EBusiness/NewMemberStepOne.aspx.


Let me also use this opportunity to highlight the purpose and scope of ISOC=
 Chapters as described in our policies (https://www.internetsociety.org/who=
-we-are/chapters/start/chapter-formation-policies) :


* Purpose of Chapters

Chapters of the Internet Society are expected to serve the interests of a s=
egment of the global Internet community in a manner consistent with themiss=
ion and principles of the Internet Society. Through a presence local to its=
 community of interest, a Chapter focuses on issues and developments import=
ant to its community. A Chapter recognizes, honours, and uses the culture, =
customs, and language of its community. Every Chapter shall have an explici=
t statement of purpose.


* Scope of Chapters

Chapters may be established on a non-exclusive basis to serve the needs of =
any specific, cohesive community of interest. Multiple Chapters serving ove=
rlapping communities are not permitted.

Please contact <chapter-support@isoc.org<mailto:chapter-support@isoc.org>> =
should you have any questions.


Thank you for your support of the Internet Society.


Best regards,

Sabrina Wilmot
Manager, Chapter Formation
