Hi, I’m _______ from Avi Lewis’ federal NDP campaign. How are ya doing?
Great.
(So...) a big reason rents are too high in this city is because landlords are jacking up rent between tenants. That’s why we’re fighting for national rent control, so you always pay what the last tenant paid.
What do you think?
(wait for response)
IF POSITIVE
Great! I'm glad we agree, but we need your help to make this happen. Can we count on your vote for Avi Lewis and the NDP in the federal election?
IF NOT POSITIVE
(Offer 1 or 2 comebacks max before asking again for support a final time and moving on).
Note: We're also calling for a tenant’s bill of rights, building non-profit housing for all, and banning the sale of affordable apartment buildings to corporations
OTHER IMPORTANT ASKS (always ask for email and phone number from anyone not opposed):
- We need to show momentum, will you take a campaign sign?

- You can vote in advance starting this Friday the 18th until Monday the 21st between 9am to 9pm at _____________________. My advice is to skip the line on election day (like we saw with municipal byelection) and to vote early. What day do you plan on voting?
- Note using survey in the app
- Note in the canvass notes which advance day they plan on voting, i.e. "voting on x day".
- If they have already voted, note "says voted"
- Do you need a ride to the polls?
- If yes, note in the app
- OR schedule on the spot here: https://www.voteavi.ca/ride
