My trip to Ottawa

Well my drive to Ottawa was a long one and worth it though I did not get into see the Prime Minister. I did get to see all the lovely building and our nations capital and more importantly spread the word of Bill C23 and what it can mean for Canadians. I got to talk to many people including police officers outside of Parliament and other people who I randomly met either at the hotel I stayed in our while I was out walking. The drive was long and took me just over 7 hours to get from our house in Windsor to Ottawa, but I am so thankful I made the trip. I have followed the protocall of what I was told to do by assistants working in Parliament and for our local MPs and Heads of Government. There is a petition out now and I sincerely need everyone to sign this and get things going. Here is the link. https://www.change.org/p/justin-trudeau-stop-bill-c23-preclearence-which-the-liberal-party-of-canada-is-trying-to-put-through We all need to get on board and support this petition and help to amend or stop the passing of Bill C23 into law. I received a call yesterday from our Right Honourable Justin Trudeaus' first assistant and followed what he has asked me to do , which is send an email with a request to sit down with the Prime Minister and discuss my(our) concerns on Bill C23 and also what happened to myself and I am sure others at the USA Border with the Customs and Border Patrol Officers. These men and women already think they are at the top of the food chain and can strip you of your rights and treat you badly for just being you, its bad enough when it happens on United States of America Soil , lets not let this happen on Canadian Soil by these same People. Please sign my petition and help me get this message across to our government and Members of Parliament that we do not want nor need the United States Customs and Border Patrol on Canadian Soil at anytime. I am going to keep fighting this and with your support we can all do something about this Bill! Anyways during my two days and three nights in Ottawa I basically stood out side of Parliament and the House of Commons and talk to people about Bill C23 and it was amazing at how many people have never heard of this or knew nothing about it at all. I spread the word as much as I could and now need you to do the same , through social media, through your work , however you can. This bill will take away your rights on Canadian Soil if it passes, it is one thing to have this done to you while visiting a country like the United States of America, but to have this happen in Canada would be just horrifying. Lets all do our part and spread the word. Thank you again for reading and I will keep you all up to date with my progress on this .
