Well, I just wanted to update everyone on the situation. The urgent message to Canadians has reached many many eyes and ears, the effort on our part at GBAtemp has been an overwhelming success! We may very well have made a huge difference in this legislative process.
Now for some statistics: As of typing this the topic on GBAtemp has received over 33 THOUSAND views, nearly 200 replies, and brought in nearly 5000 viewers on average last night (when last I checked); most of whom were reading the topic. On the Digg front we've gotten nearly 350 comments and OVER 2200 diggs. We even reached Digg's front page. Finally, the most important detail of all, according to a representative from the CCER they're having hundreds of letters sent using their service every hour!
I'd like to take this time to thank The Teej for spreading the word to various forums and groups, Hadrian for putting up the Digg article, and of course Costello for contacting me about this in the first place when he was under no patriotic obligation to do so. The support from these fine fellows and the global community at large has been nothing short of astounding. To my fellow Canadians, all I can say is thank you and keep on sending those letters and spreading the good word.
In closing, I'd like to point you all towards the pre-written letter sending service once more and put up the signature images/code.
