Join June 13 call for 13 "hero" Conservative MPs to assert due process.

from Leadnow.ca

The key vote on the Federal Budget Bill could come as soon as next Thursday, June 14. Opposition parties are gearing up to use every tool they have, including a filibuster, in a final effort to slow the Bill down and split it apart.

On Wednesday, June 13th at 5:30 pm local time, while our MPs gather in Ottawa for a decisive showdown in Parliament, we'll rally in their home ridings, and communities across Canada, to call for 13 "hero" Conservative MPs to work together and stop the Bill, split it, and start over.

By working together, 13 Conservative MPs can make sure Prime Minister Harper and his cabinet have to change plans or lose the support of the majority of votes in Parliament they need to pass the Budget Bill. We're using the term "hero" because we know many Conservative MPs have private concerns about the bill, and because in our increasingly undemocratic Parliament an MP would have to be a "hero" to represent their constituents.

More and more Canadians, including many conservatives, are rallying to defend our democracy and stand together against the Federal Budget Bill. Thanks to you, last Saturday's "Blackmark" day of action was a huge success. With 107 events, 3,000 participants, and extensive media coverage in communities across the country, your day of action helped build a wave of opposition to the Federal Budget Bill, a wave that is sweeping the country.

Let's keep building on this momentum and show our MPs that Canadians will stand up for their democracy.

We need your help. Will you join us and attend, promote or host an event during the June 13th "13 Hero" Day of Action at Conservative MP offices and support locations across the country?
