The Honourable Elizabeth May
Member
representing Saanich Gulf Islands

Dear
Ms. May:
I
along with untold thousands of Canadians would like to thank you for your
efforts on our behalf.
Recently
David Wilks said that one Member of Parliament cannot make a difference. I hope David sees that one committed Member
of Parliament can indeed make a difference.
I
hope that your actions make the Members Opposite realize that they were elected
to represent their Constituents in the House of Commons, not to be a
representative of their Party to their people.
Maybe there are 13 heroes in
that crowd.
We
can only hope.
I
would also like to thank you for reminding a grumpy old cat that there are
still good people in the House of Commons, people deserving of the title Honourable, as in the Honourable Elizabeth
May. A title earned and deserved and not
just a courtesy shown to anyone elected to the House.
I
wish you well in your attempt this evening, and I wish you success in your
endeavour.
In
closing, I’d like to offer you a gift.
Another title.

The Honourable
Lady Elizabeth May,
Defender of
Democracy.

Best
wishes in all your future endeavours,
B.C.
I had a dream a few months ago and you were the Minister of the Environment. Shortly, thereafter I became aware of your intention to stop bill C-38.It is now after your brilliant organization in formatting 22 hours of assembling amendments to the most destructive pile of crap(paper)ever to resound off the walls of the House of Commons.You stood with other parliamentarians to save our drowning democracy.I thank you for that from my heart.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bear Cat for putting into words what a great, caring many of us feel. NOW, these great, caring Canadians must be visible in the streets, everyday! Talking to people and letting the apathetic really understand what is happening around them. Indeed it is as enormous of a challenge as trying to get the CPC to care about the environment, but try we must! Engage a stranger and talk about what is happening in OUR house on the hill.
ReplyDeleteThank you again Ms. May, as I said in a tweet to her during her marathon quest for justice "close your eyes for the briefest of moments and know thousands of Canadians are standing beside you!"
Much respect,
Michelle
