Political

Your members are in every riding. Your timeline is the calendar. Converso connects every one of them.

From national leadership conventions to constituency town halls, from Get Out The Vote outreach to riding association AGMs — political parties and elected officials need to reach members and supporters at scale, fast, and on the record. Converso delivers live, two-way telephone events across Canada, bilingual, non-partisan, and fully managed since 2011.

The political engagement challenge

Your members are in every riding across the country. Reaching them all is not optional — it is the job.

Whether you are running a national leadership convention, a provincial campaign, or a single constituency town hall — the challenge is the same: party members and constituents are spread across enormous geographies, and the window to reach them is always shorter than you want it to be.

federal ridings span a country of 10 million km². A national party with members in every riding cannot rely on in-person events or email open rates alone to mobilize, consult, or get out the vote.
Elections Canada — Canada electoral district data
Weeks
Federal and provincial campaign periods compress the entire voter mobilization calendar into weeks. GoTV outreach that cannot scale instantly to tens of thousands of contacts is not GoTV — it is wishful thinking.
Canada Elections Act; provincial elections legislation
Trust
Constituent trust is built through direct, two-way contact — not press releases. A Member of Parliament or MPP who can be heard and questioned live by thousands of constituents at once demonstrates a kind of accountability that no press conference can replicate.

Converso is the infrastructure of democratic participation at scale.
We are non-partisan. We have worked with Premiers, federal Ministers, MPs, and MPPs across every major political party in Canada. Our role is not to advance any political agenda — it is to give every party, every elected official, and every candidate the same infrastructure advantage: the ability to reach their members and constituents directly, live, two-way, by phone, in any language, across any geography, at any scale.

We are the direct channel between political leaders and the people they serve — at any scale, in any riding.

When an MPP like Stan Cho needs to reach 30,000 constituents for a riding town hall, Converso calls every number on the list, connects participants live, and produces a complete event record — with live Q&A, real-time polling, and every question captured for the member's files. When a party campaign needs multilingual GoTV outreach across Quebec, New Brunswick, and Ontario simultaneously, Converso coordinates the language logistics, manages the call campaign, and reports results in real time. When Crestview Strategy needs a series of virtual town halls for government stakeholder engagement, Converso produces three events with full operator support, question vetting, and live polling — turnkey, on time, on record.

Case Study

MPP Constituency Town Hall — reaching 30,000 constituents in one call

Ontario MPPs represent ridings of tens of thousands of constituents — spread across urban neighbourhoods, suburban communities, and rural areas that can span hundreds of kilometres. An in-person town hall draws a few dozen people from the same postal code. A telephone town hall calls every registered constituent directly.

Converso worked with an Ontario MPP to produce a 60-minute live constituency town hall with outreach to 30,000 constituents. Pre-call voice broadcast and robocall announced the town hall in advance. On event day, the system dialled the full constituent list, connected interested participants live, and opened the floor to questions from residents across the riding.

The Member heard directly from constituents about issues affecting their communities — live, two-way, on the record. Every question was screened for appropriateness and posed to the Member in real time. The complete event record was delivered for constituency office files.

"A telephone town hall is the only format that actually reaches the whole riding — not just the people who happen to live near the venue and can make it on a Tuesday night. Every constituent gets the same call. The Member gets real questions from across the community. That is accountability." — Constituency office staff, Ontario MPP
Constituency town hall — what Converso delivers:
  • Advance robocall & voice broadcast
  • Live dial-out to full constituent list
  • Question screening by trained operators
  • Real-time polling on riding issues
  • Bilingual (EN/FR) option available

Case Study

Government stakeholder engagement — multi-event virtual town hall series

Government relations and political consulting firms face the same scale challenge as the parties and officials they serve: how do you engage thousands of stakeholders across multiple regions, in multiple sessions, at a consistent standard of quality and documentation?

Converso worked with Crestview Strategy to produce a series of virtual town halls for government stakeholder engagement — three separate sessions, each reaching up to 5,000 attendees, with full video conferencing, real-time polling, document sharing, live question vetting, and onsite producer support for each event.

Each session was produced to the same professional standard: a dedicated Converso producer on-site for each event, trained screening operators vetting participant questions in real time, and a complete event record delivered after each session. The multi-event series allowed Crestview to offer their government clients consistent, high-quality engagement across different stakeholder groups — without building the production infrastructure in-house.

This is what a white-glove managed service looks like in practice: the consulting firm focuses on strategy and client relationships; Converso handles everything that runs during the event.

What political clients say

Trusted by elected officials and party organizations across Canada.

Political events demand a higher standard of execution — because the stakes are public, the record is permanent, and the audience is the electorate. Converso has delivered hundreds of political events without a single failure, for every major party in Canada.

★★★★★

"A telephone town hall with Converso is the most efficient constituent engagement tool we have ever used. We reached more constituents in one evening than we could in a dozen in-person events — and the quality of questions we got from the community was remarkable. Every constituent got the same call."

Constituency Office Staff
Ontario MPP, Government of Ontario
★★★★★

"We needed to run three stakeholder town halls in quick succession — different audiences, consistent quality, full event documentation. Converso produced every session to exactly the standard our clients expected. The live question vetting, real-time polling, and same-day record delivery made us look like a much larger operation than we are."

Senior Advisor

★★★★★

"Converso is non-partisan in the truest sense — they apply the same professionalism, the same rigour, and the same quality of service whether you are Liberal, Conservative, NDP, or anything else. That is exactly what you want from an events partner in a politically sensitive environment. No surprises, no agenda, just excellent execution."
