NDP leadership candidates Q&A on babble

Hey babble people,

Some of you may remember the last NDP leadership race where babble hosted all but one candidate in a Q&A. We're thinking of doing this again. Here's how it works: Babblers submit questions to the moderator and about 5 or 6 questions will be selected and sent to the candidate. We then host them live and post the questions and answers. As time allows there is some room for it being an interactive thread.

I posted this to another thread and got a good response. I'm re-posting this for increased input. My question is, do you want to do this again? If so, the Q&As will be done over the summer and candidates will be approached alphabetically by last name.  

The last Q&As went very well and I anticipate that this go round will be similarly interesting and fun. Please respond whether you think this is something we should do or not. Questions are welcome.

Hi Meg,

The proposal sounds interesting, and will be useful if we get some participation. But I confess my memory is going a bit... I don't recall the Q&As from 2011-12. Would you happen to have any links to the Q&As we did in the previous leadership race - just to give an idea of how they went and maybe spark some more interest here? Thanks!

Sounds good.  Hope no one follows Mulcair's example.

Hi Unionist. Let me find out whether those Q&As are archived and I'll try to hunt them down.
