Interview with Senate Speaker, Noël A. Kinsella, Please Submit Your Questions!

Greg Farries — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 10:45:07 -0700

I am scheduled to do an interview with Senator Noël A. Kinsella, Speaker of the Canadian Senate. I'm providing visitors (and forum members) the opportunity to submit potential questions to Senator Kinsella.
This interview will touch on several subjects, including questions relating to the Canadian Senate, and some of the proposals to reform the Senate. Your questions can be emailed directly to me, or you can post the questions in this weblog thread or this forum thread.
Your questions can be submitted until Friday, February 15th, after which I will select three (or more) interesting questions and include them in the batch asked to Senator Kinsella. The interview will appear in the Interviews section of Mapleleafweb.
Any off-topic or disrespectful postings or questions will be deleted.

Website Errors and Deleted Login Accounts

For some reason the MySQL database that it used to run the back end of Maple Leaf Web was throwing an error during the past few days. This error didn't seem to cause any issue with displaying the website content or forums - and no website data was lost - however there was some issues with viewing the front page of Maple Leaf Web.
The error appears to have been caused by a corrupt cache, and once the cache was clear, everything returned to normal. However, when attempting to diagnose the problems, a few user accounts were accidentally deleted.
If you were one of the accounts that was deleted, I apologize. Please feel free to register with Maple Leaf Web again.
Note: forum member accounts were not affected, only general user accounts.
Thanks!
