We are firmly committed to continuing to raise our VOICE in Canada for the sake of generations to come--we hope you are too! In our passion we are also comitted to informing ourselves. That is why this page exists. Follow the links to different organizations to find out more about the issues that burn in your heart.

GET A CLUE (GET INFORMED):

When meeting with your MP, Senator, MLA or City officials it is important to know the issues that they are debating at that time. We can speak into any issue at any time, however, it is most effective to speak into the issues that are on the 'table' of debate right before them.

What Do I Talk To My MP/Senator about ? ? ?

The bottom line is that you need to talk to them about whatever 'burns' on your heart. Once you determine what that is (and get informed on the issue that burns in your heart), it is strategic to talk to your MP/Senator about Bills that are currently on the 'table' because these are the things that they can influence and will be likely voting on in the next months. Use this page to give you an overview of bills on the table right now that we feel are 'interesting' (this is NOT an exhaustive list).

Note: You can also talk you MP/Senator about issues that you would like them to introduce legislation on.
