Coalition
to Save the Court Challenges Program
(CCP)
The Coalition
to Save Court Challenges is a broad coalition of concerned organizations
and individuals
committed to ensuring the continuation of funding for the Court Challenges
Program of Canada.
New organizations and individuals are signing onto our campaign every
day.
Dear
Friends of the Court Challenges Program
As you know by
now the Court Challenges Program has been cancelled by the Conservative
minority government. This is a blow to all those in Canada who believe
in fairness, equality and language rights for French and English minorities.
Please help us reverse this decision.
Below
you will find links to a letter to the Prime Minister and several background
documents regarding the Court Challenges Program.
A
Steering Committee representative of both language rights and equality
rights communities has prepared these materials and is asking that you
do the following:
- Inform
CCD by noon of Monday,
October 2nd if you or your organization are willing
to be listed as either a supporting organization or individual on
this letter, or both.
Send
your confirmations of support to
april@ccdonline.ca along
with your contact information.
Your
endorsement should indicate the full name (not simply an acronym)
of the organization in both English and French if you choose, as
well as the full spelling of your name and title if you wish it
included.
- Circulate
this letter to others that have not received it and encourage their
support. There will be follow up letters to the Prime Minister. We
are seeking as many names as possible by Monday but do not stop seeking
endorsements of the letter, there will be other opportunities for
organizations and individuals to support this work.
-
Write
your own letter as an individual or organization to the Prime Minister
and forward a copy for our records to april@ccdonline.ca
- Write
your own Member of Parliament and send her or him a copy of the letter
to the Prime Minister. We will circulate the final letter to the Prime
Minister with endorsements to you on Monday afternoon.
