I think we can start by making some daily threads as possible topics of discussion (kinda like speaker notes(I don't really know the canadian parliament term for this)) and then room is free to make a thread for each topic, and discussion can be done in the replies. also the upvote amount would be equivalent of supporting mps

I'm down to participate.

I guess we would need to lay out some base rules, maybe create/platform some "parties", launch some sort of "election" or appointment process, and then develop issues to debate. It could be a an entertaining/interesting experiment, but it does need a certain critical mass to launch.

We should host an election with upvotes representing votes.

I guess the first step would be to get members of parliament

I'm assuming that would be the 8 subscribers in this community. @[email protected]
