About the author

Looking back over 81 years I had the good fortune to have had a wonderful mom, a great wife and family, a successful career in business and excellent health. Sure there were ups and downs but they were too few to mention. Retirement for me means giving back some of that good fortune and I have chosen to advocate for those citizens who for reasons of their own cannot or will not fight for themselves. They include the old, sick poor, disabled and homeless.

I want Bill C-518 passed

September 2, 2013

Dear Sir,

I want Bill C-518 passed.

I understand that you, John Williamson, a Conservative MP from New Brunswick, have introduced Bill C-518, a private members bill that would take away the pensions from people like Lavigne or any federal politician who is charged and convicted of defrauding taxpayers.

The Bill specifically states that any conviction of those who were MPs or Senators on June 3, 2013 will result in loss of their parliamentary pension. Which means that as long as the bill passes, Harb and others, if they are convicted, would lose their pensions, even if they resign.

We need your help to make this bill a law. We need the Harper government to adopt your private members bill as a government bill and pass it as soon as Parliament resumes this fall.
 
Regards,
