[Advisors] link for WSIS+20 livestream -- 11:30 EDT

[Garth Graham]

Thank you for that, Marita.  It certainly worked as an awareness raising exercise since it involved  kind of a who’s who of Internet Governance actors.  So the range of experience expressed was impressive.  But then folks like that are really good at grabbing microphones!  For those of you who didn’t watch, a woman jumped the speaking queue, forcing Marita to be the very last speaker with the clock running out and her time reduced to 2 minutes!  All her diligent preparation got slighted. However, having TC be a participant on the platform is a success. And, as Marita has noted, there’s more forums to come.

For the record, I wasn’t able to be present "Paving the Road to Tunis - May 13-15, 2005.”  The following TC directors were in attendance:
   • Brian Beaton,
   • Michael Gurstein,
   • Marita Moll,
   • David Murdoch,
   • Peter Royce,
   • Gareth Shearman,

The link to Gareth’s and Pater’s presentation at that event is on the TC web site here:  http://www.tc.ca/winnipeg2005/

> In doing some background research for this, I recalled that here in Canada, TC was part of a consultation in 2005 preparing a statement from Canadian civil society.  Representatives from numerous NGOs were asked about their views on the plan of action that emerged from WSIS Phase 1 and the prospects for Phase 2 in Tunis. It was called "Paving the Road to Tunis - 2005."  I think Garth was there and perhaps also Clarice. I remember a very effective presentation by Gareth Shearman and Peter Frampton. This was an in person meeting funded by various government departments but under the auspices of Foreign Affairs.

> I only have 3 minutes to speak in today's Forum but it is billed as an awareness raising exercise and further opportunities to learn about this and how endusers and civil society can be involved are expected. I will be bringing up the Canadian experience -- maybe some of the Canadian members of the Government Advisory Committee will be intrigued and even interested in repeating this. I am pretty sure that none of them were around for the first version so would not know about it.
