In the event that you missed the Second Reading of BILL C201 the attached is a MUST read."
Bill C-201 will again be raised in the House Of Commons within the next 30 days at which time it will be voted upon. As can be seen from the attached "Hansard", we have garnered the support of the Liberal Party, the Bloc and the NDP which means that the Bill will pass Second Reading and ultimately be sent to the Veterans Affairs Committee for a detailed review. It is anticipated that Veterans' groups will be asked to make presentations at the Committee meetings during this review process.
It is imperative that we all make the effort to support Mr. Peter Stoffer who recently requested that within the next 30 days supporters endeavour to contact by phone, e-mail or letter, all federal Conservative Party MPs and Senators (irregardless of their riding/region) and seek their support for Bill C-201.
Supporters are encouraged to pass on their appreciation to Mr Stoffer via e-mail (
stoffp0@parl.gc.ca ) or telephone [ (902) 861 - 2311 ] in recognition of his extensive effort in fighting for Veteran's rights. His presentation to the House Of Commons on the 25 Mar 09 during the 2nd Reading of his private member's bill was absolutely outstanding.
