WhatsApp Group Policy for the Tamil Cultural Association (Waterloo Region)

Dear Community Members,

We are delighted to have over 700 members in our WhatsApp group, which has been created with the goal of supporting each other, sharing positive experiences, and fostering a sense of belonging within our Tamil community here in the Waterloo region.

To maintain the friendly and supportive environment we all enjoy, we request that everyone adheres to the following guidelines:

1. Respectful and Positive Communication

  • This group is a platform for supporting each other, sharing knowledge, and spreading happiness.
  • Kindness and respect should guide every conversation. Please be mindful of your words and how they might affect others.
  • Negative, offensive, or hurtful comments will not be tolerated. We aim to create an uplifting environment for all members.

2. No Political or Divisive Content

  • Political discussions, controversial opinions, and divisive messages are not allowed in the group. We are here to focus on community building and fostering positive connections, not to engage in political debates.
  • If you wish to share personal political opinions, please do so in private conversations, not in the group.

3. Relevant Information Only

  • Please keep posts relevant to the Tamil community and the purpose of the group. This includes cultural events, local services, helpful resources, and general support.
  • Advertisements or promotional content unrelated to the group's mission should be avoided. If you have something valuable to share, please reach out to the group admins for approval before posting. If you are promoting your own small/established business - please post only on Thursdays. If it is posted on other days it will be deleted.
  • Customers should follow the complaint process with the company they are dealing with. No open feedback or negative posts against any business or personals.
