Baby Booties

Letter to the Editor

Writing a letter to the Editor is a great way to keep the conversation going in your community! Your local paper will include information on where/how to submit a letter to the editor. Here are some tips:

Focus on one issue only. Keep it clear and short – only 200-250 words.
Remove non-essential words such as “I think” or “I believe.” Just state the facts.
Start your email with a brief introduction followed by your name, city, and daytime phone number.
Include your letter in the body of your email, not as an attachment.
If your letter doesn’t get published the first time, don’t be discouraged! They receive many letters each week, so please keep trying.
Contact us if you would like help composing your letter.

Postcards to Members of Parliament

Send a postcard to your MP asking them to support a Pre-born Victims of Crime law.

Gather Petition Signatures

Petitions are a great way to send a strong message to the House of Commons that we want them to act now! It only takes 25 signatures to get something read in the House of Commons and this is a great opportunity to affect the policy in our country by using our freedom of expression.
