Spoken words from a Wife and from a British Soldier

Once more my friend , fellow cook and Veteran Ed from Miramachi has sent me an enlightening e mail and link that I wish to share with you.:

I am still struggling to create a hyper link so please take a moment copy and paste the links They are very worthwhile to show you and allow you to hear the tremour in a Canadin Infantryman's wife's voice as she speaks.The second is an interview with a young soldier in Afghanistan.

I pass this on in hopes that you will take the time to listen to this soldiers wife.

We hope and pray that all of our service personnel come home safely where ever they are serving.

Re: Bill C-201

Dear Leaders and Members of Parliament.

You are requested to view a Soldiers Wife commentary at: URL

This Military Spouse and many others because they choose to support their Soldier Husband will probably receive a very small CPP pension at age 65, as they will be denied decent employment opportunities. Is this the Dignity their Families should be subject to for all the pain, suffering, devotion and unconditioned love they have freely given to our Country?

Veterans ask, how can you not vote YES to Bill C-201 when Mr. Peter Stoffer, MP presents it to the House of Commons for its final debate and vote?

Mr. Prime Minister and Leaders of the Oppositions we request that you will permit your MP colleagues to vote freely when Bill C-201 is presented in the House of Commons and allow a democratic vote.

Military/RCMP Veterans and their Families have gallantly served our Country Canada! Veterans deserve our gratitude and respect, both while serving and in retirement! They deserve nothing less than to spend their Golden Years with the Financial Dignity they and their Families have paid for in so many different ways!

Please distribute far and wide and write to your Member of Parliament in support of Bill C-201.

Sincerely,

John Labelle

Campaign Coordinator
