1. Communication

The membership/outreach/finance committee struck a website/listserve subcommittee. We are in the process of setting up an Assembly website. In addition to Assembly related information the website we will also have space for Assembly members to post information about campaigns, demos and events they are involved in. We also hope to have a members
discussion board on the site. The site will be on line before the end of the month.

Message from Outgoing Interim Coordinating Committee to the Toronto Workers' Assembly

The outgoing ICC would like to express its thanks and congratulations to all those who took part in the last Assembly. Creating an organization is no easy task and, though it was difficult at times, participants demonstrated their commitment to this project through their patience, thoughtful contributions, and mutual solidarity and respect.
