Case Study: False Creek NDP achieves voter-informed, defensible campaign policies with PlaceSpeak

False Creek NDP - Customer Case Study

False Creek NDP, supporting Matt Toner’s 2013 provincial campaign, needed a way to ensure voters’ ideas on creativity and innovation were heard and incorporated into party plans. They used PlaceSpeak’s platform—particularly its discussion forum and resource-sharing tools—to engage Vancouver’s creative community and collect feedback from constituents.

PlaceSpeak ran moderated discussion forums and uploaded campaign resources, generating 56 connected participants, 828 unique views and 28 comments, and enabling direct exchanges on tech startups, videogames and film/TV. The PlaceSpeak engagement helped Matt Toner develop defensible policy positions for his nomination campaign and subsequent NDP provincial campaigns.
