This Saturday, June 18, get your overalls, tool belt, and hardhat out! We’re re-installing ‘asbestos’ into your local Conservative MPs office and the Prime Minister’s home. It’s part of something we’re calling National Asbestos Delivery Day. We hope to re-install ‘asbestos’ in every riding.
What you need to participate:
- A copy of the pledge that your MP can sign
- Cotton batting
- Tool belt, overalls and/or hardhat
- Camera
- Bring a friend
If you’re planning on taking part, please send an email to action [at] canadacausescancer.ca (action[at]canadacausescancer[dot]ca) with your riding in the subject line. You can also RSVP on Facebook and share this event with friends.
Take a photo of your delivery and email us or post it on our Facebook wall.
Send signed pledges back to pledge [at] canadacausescancer.com (pledge[at]canadacausescancer[dot]com).
