CANADA WEST NEWSLETTER - NAMING
 

The majority of respondents to the previous name change survey said they were open to the idea of a new name for our newsletter and we received dozens of suggestions for a new name (many of which were variations on common themes). We've narrowed it down to the best from each theme, and today is another chance for each of you to chime in and make the final decision. 

 
This survey is open until March 26th, the results will be emailed to all members on the March 27th
