[fvc-wat-disc] E-Petition Being Presented In the House Tomorrow At 10 a.m

[Cathy Scott]

HI, again, Sharon

I can help with take down also on the 29th.

 

The ‘Democracy Now’ group in Guelph has about 700 signatures on their petition supporting the Local Proportional Representation proposal that their MP has been presenting to MPs in Ottawa.  That’s exciting too, along with the presentation of this petition.  I hope the momentum is such that the Liberals can’t ignore it.

Hello Friends of Electoral Reform,

 

Tomorrow morning at 10 am., Nathan Cullen will present petition E-616 to the House of Commons.  E-616 is the largest e-petition to date with 130,452 signatures and will automatically trigger a debate in the House.  You can watch Nathan present the petition on CPAC.  Here is the link:

At 11 a.m tomorrow there is a press conference to announce Nathan Cullen's "Keep the Promise" Tour which you can also watch on CPAC.

 

We are looking forward to the Kitchener, "Keep Your Promise" tour town hall next Weds. night at KPL, 7 pm to 8:30 pm.  Nathan is an inspiring, insightful and thoughtful speaker. The opportunity to have a positive and constructive public conversation about the future of electoral reform with Nathan offers some hope that we could still see a fair electoral system in time for 2019. 

 

Here is the facebook page for the town hall:

Till then,

Sharon
