Get birth control back in the Maternal Health Bill – while I hate the lack of choice that would not include abortion rights try for the use of abortion in cases of rape, incest, human trafficking and other violent situations for now.
Harper is a very good strategist! Find someone with the same set of skills of chess in politics. Make sure your members are fully advised of the moves and jives they will see from you in the future.
Ignore Coulter but express worries about her health. (She is so thin -either unwell, or anoerexic/bulimic).
Express issue of Bill C-3. Yeah – a gender equity bill! (That’s a 1st) Without $ for implementation, bands and reserves across the Nation will be inundated with requests for status rights without any increases of money. That will really advance the move for gender equity.
Gender Equity – Look to making gender equity a piece of legislation. Europe has done it. North America has chosen to go by policy and it is not getting through the lines.
A further on gender equity – seek ways to see that men and women who choose to stay home and raise kids are not penalized for doing so.
Just a couple of notes.
When are you coming to the NWT and doing a proper tour?
