quote:I volunteer regularly for a progressive political party. My riding association, however, only calls on me when they need money or free labour. I can't remember the last time they had a general meeting. We never really get a chance to come together as a riding and socialize (or have some input and discussion of policy decisions).
I've lost all desire to give my time to this party, and I now feel the riding executive is completely out of touch with how to do things properly. How should I proceed? Should I voice my complaints to the riding executive? Shouldn't ridings have regular meetings?
