Time to write more letters to NDP and comment on how fair MacGregor is?

At this point, they need to keep everything in check so you need someone to keep the bar up there.

What made MacGregor fair was not letters and phone calls, it was going to VFGPA. I really think that trip opened his eyes to the bullshit we were facing. Julian seems far more ideological so I can't see him actually doing that.

Then I hope MacGregor can convince Julian to do the same and go to VFGPA as well. Not to mention all the thing he proposed.

It's kind of sucks how precarious the situiation all depend on single position.

VFGPA isn't in Julian's constituency, so he would probably go to a Vancouver range. But even then, I don't think there is a break in Parliament schedule that will allow MP's to go back home before C-21 passed the house.

We just have to hope he introduces the amendments as MacGregor wrote them and doesn't undermine them.

Aww, that sucks, I hope they have their own discussion properly before going to the SECU meeting.

Then again, if that's was the case, they wouldn't need to remove MacGregor in the first place.
