\"logos_Ask Your MP to Support Bill C-277<\/h2>\n

In addition to having you sign e-Petition #4266,<\/a> MP MacGregor requires the support of your local Member of Parliament.<\/p>\n

We do all the work for you!<\/strong> Go here <\/a>\u00a0to enter your name, email address, and postal code and we will do the rest.

Bill C-277<\/a> is an initiative of the CGB Centre for Traumatic Life Losses<\/a> and has been developed in consultation with Brain Injury Canada<\/a>, BC Brain Injury Association<\/a>, and Cowichan Brain Injury Society<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One final ask\u2026<\/h3>\n

Please ask at least one person (family member, friend, support worker, service provider, your local MLA, MP, Mayor, and Council) to support this initiative by signing the e-Petition and submitting a letter of support.<\/p>\n

Brain injury happens to anyone, anywhere, anytime and all levels of government need to be involved. Their voters are impacted by brain injury.<\/p>\n

As a Canadian citizen, and your (federal, provincial, or municipal) government representative, they have a responsibility to take a stand and support Bill C-277. They are your voice at the level of government they represent. Ask them to use it.<\/p>\n

We can grow this initiative exponentially together.<\/p>\n

If everyone who signs the e-Petition and submits a letter asks one person to do the same, we double our efforts.<\/p>\n

If you ask one person and they ask one person, and so on\u2026 the numbers will grow exponentially in the favor of survivors of brain injury.<\/p>\n

Help us make a difference for survivors of brain injury, their families, and our communities.<\/p>\n

We can do this!<\/p>\n

Important Information: PLEASE SIGN BOTH THE PETITION AND SUBMIT A LETTER TO YOUR MP.<\/p>\n
