BILL'S 2ND HOUR OF DEBATE STILL TO COME...

Cassie and Molly's Law was scheduled to see its second hour of debate in the House of Commons yesterday, October 5th. However, the debate was cancelled due to an extraordinary number of votes & will take place within the next 10 sitting days. This means we will still see C-225 debated this month.

Stay tuned as we will let you know as soon as the new date is announced.

BONUS TIME TO HAVE AN EVEN GREATER IMPACT

We consider this extension a blessed opportunity as it allows each of us extra time to contact our Members of Parliament and also to get our friends on board with the various support campaigns taking place.

WAYS TO SUPPORT BILL C-225

CONTACT YOUR MP:

If you haven't already done so, please e-mail, call, or tweet your Member of Parliament and ask them to support Bill C-225. Better yet, do all three and do them more than once! This is the most effective way to ensure this bill does well in the House of Commons.

When speaking to your MP, be sure to explain that Bill C-225 is important because:

▪ It fills a gap in current Canadian law,
▪ It protects Canadian women, their children & families,
▪ It ensures that justice is served when a woman's choice to carry her child to term is taken away if her child is killed or injured during the commission of a crime against her. (This legislation therefore does not affect abortion rights).

C225 PHOTO CAMPAIGN:

Please join our friends at We Need a Law in this photo campaign.

Here's what you need to do:

▪ Create a sign explaining why you support Bill C-225
▪ Take a photo (selfie or otherwise) of you & your sign
▪ Share it on your social media accounts using hashtags #C225 and #MollyMatters and tagging your Member of Parliament.

Sample messages:

▪ I support #C225 because: "We need to end gender-based violence against pregnant women." #mollymatters
▪ I support #C225 because: "Pregnant women and their pre-born children should be protected." #mollymatters

If you are not on social media you can still participate by sending your photo to info@weneedalaw.ca so that they can share it for you.

INFORM / INVITE YOUR FRIENDS:

Please talk about this bill with your friends and invite them to play a role as well.
