… young people want to set the agenda on environmental protection, heath care, education and open government—the top issues identified on a survey from leadnow.ca… Why can’t we provide feedback on government services via Facebook? Why not an e-suggestion box?… We want to hashtag a proposed policy and get live updates on its legislative process, and then respond with concerns if it dies… We want to tweet questions to ministers and get an authentic response.
