[fvc-wat-disc] letter to BC newspapers

[Jennifer Ross]

Yeah, I don't think so.  One of the No sides great messages is that
everything will be decided by Vancouver, so to have it decided by Ontario
would just be that much worse.  But what you CAN do is sign up for the
telephone GOTV that's going on.  Which I don't have the information at my
fingertips but if you are interested and have some time starting the 22nd,
I think, there is training available by video now and I can connect you to
well, Anita, who might be reading this anyway.

No other Western democratic country concentrates as much political power in
the hands of one person as Canada does with her Prime Minister.
