#12014-12-09 21:38I think that music is a universal language through which the human spirit is given a chance to soar. It is noble of Switzerland to accept in their countries all these talented musicians and in return Switzerland gains their beautiful performances and creations - A fare exchange!!! Keep giving them all a chance!! |

#22014-12-10 20:24Switzerland has, occasionally, been known for its inflexibility on matters of immigration and settlement policy. This is unfortunate, as can be seen in this case. |

#62014-12-23 23:45I have and have had students study in Basel and have begun their careers in Basel. I also have colleagues to have studied and now teach in Basel at the Scola. This directive seems completely at odds with what I would have imagined Basel to be. This directive will essentially destroy important research, teaching, and music-making. |

#72014-12-26 08:43Guys, Please sign the petition! It takes some seconds, but it affects the fate of musicians. In the European Union are going to pass a law that prohibits the students of music universities - aliens to stay in the EU after graduation. This means that, for instance, my friend, who finished our conservatory and is now working in Switzerland, will be forced to return to Ukraine, and again to work hard for the 1500 - 2000 UAH., despite his talent and professionalism! Please, sign the petition! |

#92014-12-30 05:11I can accept countries needing policies on immigration, but certain professions where you are pulling your weight financially and adding to the culture of a country is an ideal that shouldn't be pushed away. Musicians have always been nomadic. There has never been and never will be enough work to go round on a 75% permanent basis. I understand Switzerland wants to maintain it's high living standards and living wage, but Switzerland should embrace that it is possible for musicians to do this in their country and in return they get some the best concerts going worldwide. Focus on controlling the borders for those who do lower the minimum wage by under-cutting the traditional Swiss 'working class', but don't sacrifice a relatively tiny number of people who add to the culture and have trained as long as doctors in your bid to control immigration. |

#112014-12-30 12:24I have worked with so many amazing musicians from Basel, and as a freelance artist myself, I know how difficult it can be when it comes to immigration laws, as our earnings don't often come from a single source. There needs to be a change so that artists are not penalized for the nature of the profession. |

#122014-12-30 13:10I am an electrical engineer that loves singing and sings in multiple choral groups. I feel this is wrong because these musicians are not illegals and have come to the country to learn an art form and to practice it. |

#132014-12-30 16:56Es una lastima que una ciudad tan bella y de tanto movimiento cultural, tenga que sufrir la perdida de músicos por cuestiones políticas. A través de los años hemos disfrutado de tantos ensambles, cantantes y músicos nacidos o formados en Basilea y queremos continuar disfrutando de la música que se crea y ejecuta en esa ciudad. |

#152014-12-31 13:33The same and old history! European import people when they need or find it "interesting" somehow. But in a while they decide differently and start to spread the idea that "foreigners have to go home"!!! We all live in the same planet! It belongs to all of us! We all have the inherent rights to be wherever we want! |

#182014-12-31 18:59I was totally depressed when I read about the new conditions for musicians. I hope that those responsible for the cultural life, not only of Basel but of Switzerland in general, will think this over thoroughly and find a good solution. |

#192015-01-01 10:05Arts in general and music in particular should be encouraged in any way, supporting musicians. They can contribute to change positivly the minds of people. |

#212015-01-02 08:30I was "Fest" at Theater Basel from 1989-1992. I learned the repertoire there which led to my international career. I sang some concerts for the Paul-Sacher Stiftung while living in Basel for 5 years, collaborating with Jean Jaques Duenki, Rainer Altorfer and James and Jeannie Galway, among others. It was those experiences which led to my international career.I am forever indebted to Basel.I must say that I had little ontact with the early music scene in Basel, being as I was busy at the Theater, but I began my career in New York as mezzo-soprano soloist for the Waverly Consort. I implore Basel-Stadt to reconsider their position. I support all musicians students or professionals in Basel, unconditionally. Please contat me if I may be of help. Thank you, Andreas, and all who support this initiative. MfG,Ihre Kimball Wheeler. |

Oppose Rotorua Council's 'interim' model of 1 Maori seat, 1 General seat and 8 At Large seats recommended to the Local Government Commission
Please sign this petition and share it with others so the results can be tabled at the Local Government Commission Hearings on 23 March. Giving the 19,791 citizens on the Māori Roll and the 51,618 citizens on the General Roll one seat each to vote for will give those on the Māori Roll over 2.6 times the voting power of those on the General Roll. This will violate the New Zealand Bill of Rights which gives each citizen the right to vote in genuine elections with each vote having the same voting p

Wanted to make changes to the current laws that dogs are not allowed in the Main Te Anau town centre. In 2022 more and more people are travelling with their dogs on Holiday with them or out walking with their dogs that it would be nice to be able to access Restaurants & Cafe's in the town centre as dogs cannot be left in a vehicle in the heat of summer.

Opposition to Fencing off the Western arm of Port Tarakohe.
There seems to be a quite a few people opposed to the Penguin Trust/TDC putting up a fence on the western arm of Port Tarakohe. TDC - "We have a responsibility under the Reserves Act 1977 to consult with the public to ensure this aligns with the vision and objectives of the community." If you oppose having this public area fenced off at rate payers expense then please sign this petition so TDC, the Penguin Trust, and the Community Council, will only take action that "aligns with the vision and

Kaiako across Aotearoa need access to 100% Te Reo Maths resources and mainstream teachers want access to Te Reo Bilingual Maths resources.

More importantly, it also needs to have a Te Ao Māori lens and worldview as part of the learning modules and lessons but also align with the Te Aho Matua and Te Marautanga o Aotearoa curriculum framework.

NO! To Masks in Schools
I WON'T SEND MY CHILD TO SCHOOL IN A MASK! With the announcement today of children in grades 4 and up having to wear masks all day, comes a dilemma parents should not be faced with. Do I send my child back to school to wear a mask all day? Homeschooling and Private School are getting traction but that doesn't solve the problem or address the lack of common sense this decision has. Private schools won't be implementing masks, so if you have money your child is free to breathe. If you don't have
