Hi there, some of you may know me, as I am the current Delegate/Prime Minster of the region of Canada, but I've also taken over the duty of Ambassador to the SP (as Officer Lou pointed out). I know we've had a shaky past, but I hope our region's relations remain at their current state long into the future. I will post an update on Canada, as soon as I've got some time.

Quick little update: Canada Pop.: 327 UN Delegate: Checkers McDog (69 endorsements) Regional Happenings: - We recently cut off ties with the region of Alberta, which stemmed from OOC insults directed at the delegate (well, me... :glare: ) - Bweezy (by request) was suspended from Canadian gov't for a period of 5 days, based on a, shall I say, rude telegram he sent to a member of the region of Alberta - Our Minister of Foreign Affairs, Zephyr Winds, resigned, and deputy minister, Maikainzilion, took over his position in cabinet |

Update: Next weekend in Canada, there will be a referendum to amend our constitution to include some guidelines regarding voting in UN polls, after a potential vote rigging a couple weeks ago. Also, the election campaign in Canada begins today, and the polls will be open June 10 to 13. |

In addition to the UN poll amendments to the constitution, there will also be another referendum regarding the addition of a clause to the constitution requiring all electoral candidates to announce their candidacy at least 24 hours before the polls open. |

I have not had many dealings with Western Europe. However, I do know that TITO is a very honorable organization. |

Yes, these two regions were of interest to us, because of their distinct focusses. 10000 Islands has, arguably, the best freedom fighting army in the NS world, and Western Europe is a fairly large region (approx. 130), with an almost entire focus upon role playing. |

Sory I didn't catch any of this - unfortunately RL caught up with me in the form of travelling 180 mile round trips to work each day - on top of working 10 hrs. Hopefully as far as free time I hope this won't last too long, financially I hope it lasts quite a while....

Update on Canada: - We amended our Conflict of Interest law - We're working on developing guidelines of RPing in the region - Canada refused to re-establish ties with the region of Alberta - After the successful "Interviews with the Cabinet" series, conducted by Deputy Prime Minister MrPopo, we are looking into creating a Canadian Press Network - Canada refused a request for an alliance with the tiny regions of Calgary and Edmonton (their ties to the region of Alberta, didn't bode well with us) - We're exploring the possibility of diplomatic ties with the region of Tempest - We had a very successful recruiting drive, our population was bumped from about 280, to 375, and still climbing. We currently sit at the position of 5th largest user created region, and 11th largest region over all. (We're looking to become the 10th largest within a matter of days if things keep going as they do). - We got a snazzy new board skin, check it out: http://invisionfree.com/forums/NationStates_Canada - On our regional map, we created the capital of our region: Ottawa (based in the RL location of Ottawa, Canada's capital) Our map: http://ca.geocities.com/aras_seth/canadamapproject.jpg (It's geocities, so if it doesn't work, just copy/paste the link into your browser, then it should) That's about it (I think) Hope all's well in the SP

Canada's election campaign for the 5 cabinet positions (in addition to the delegate) is underway. The polls will be open Aug. 12th - 15th. July 27th was a record-breaking day for Canada. We broke every major record we keep: - Population: Hit an all time high of 411 nations. We have also beaten out The YoungWorld's population. Making us the 4th largest user-created region NS-wide, and the 10th largest region overall. - Endorsements: The delegate's endorsements (mine), reached an all time high of 97. - Our simultaneous users online record: 15 - Posts per day: 373 posts (was beat out a day later on July 28th, with a whopping 523) |

I haven't watched days in a couple of months - is Marlena et al still trapped on the island that houses an exact copy of Salem? Is Jack still alive? Heck, is Rex's sister Cassie still alive? Details! I need details! |
