I found out about this yesterday and was about to forward the link. I
encourage all members to take action. As a Canadian, I am deeply
ashamed at "my" government's position--it is not a government I will
ever agree with...

Please support the efforts and principles of those like Michael
Schmidt; they exist in every region and community.
