A Message from the Canadian Federation of Jewish Students Dear Student, Mazel Tov on finishing the Fall 2005 semester! CJPAC, the Canadian Jewish Political Affairs Committee, is organizing volunteers for the Federal election. Many of you have already responded to our call to action and we thank you! CJPAC is a new organization which seeks to advance issues of concern to the Canadian Jewish community by participating in the Canadian political arena. We are multi-partisan, therefore we work with members of all parties. We are presently looking for volunteers to assist on campaigns across the country. CJPAC will pair you with the campaign of your choice. As a former candidate, I know firsthand how valuable students are in an election campaign. In addition to the difference you will make, you can forge excellent contacts. It's a great opportunity for networking, professional development and community involvement. Volunteers participate in phone or door-to-door canvassing, installing lawn signs, office help, literature drops. Indicate your preferred campaign or candidate, and we will place you with that campaign. In the absence of a clear preference, we will work with you to find a suitable campaign. Any time you can spare will be valuable. You can work during and/or after the winter break. In addition, through a partner program with Canadian Jewish Law Students' Association, we are looking for law students to fulfill legal duties required on Election Day, and thereafter, should there be a recount. This is a great opportunity for networking with politicians, major business and community leaders, as well as a fabulous learning and professional experience. Those of you who have volunteered in the past know how important and fun it can be. Candidates need our support. To get involved, please fill out the attached form and send it to election(a)cjpac.ca. Have a very happy Chanukah and look forward to hearing from you! Yours truly, Josh Cooper Executive Director CJPAC For more information visit: http://www.cfjs.ca or http://www.cjpac.ca A Message from the Canadian Jewish Law Student Association CJLSA 19th Annual Conference in Ottawa: January 13th-15th The Canadian Jewish Law Students Association (CJLSA) will be holding its 19th annual national conference on January 13-15, 2006 at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier Hotel in Ottawa. The theme will focus on "Tikun Olam", repairing the world, and its significance for Jewish law students. All interested students or legal professionals are welcome to attend! This is your chance to meet and network with many different law professionals, as well as mingle with fellow law students or students interested in law from across Canada. Make sure to reserve the dates and check out our website, www.cjlsa.ca for information about our organization, and to download a registration form. This is an opportunity not to be missed!
