"A petition is a lazy person's way to do something"

antlizzie, thanks for the great idea to include a mass mailing program to the petition.

The "Better Way", yes perhaps each individual could, in addition to signing the petition, write to thier local MLA, local MP, Mr. Flarety, Mr. Harper and the leaders of the other political parties here in Canada, all Mining organizations, Rotary Clubs etc.etc. Point is, until enough noise is made the squeeky wheel just does not get the grease.

Many, many letters have been written both to politicians and the OSC alike, all to no avail. If a movement such as that which transpired here with NOTs' 6000 or so investers were to snowball across the hubs here at Agoracom just imagine the numbers. Tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands. Perhaps the petition could incorporate a way of allowing a signee to attatch comments or these very same letters to his or her signature.
