Health Freedom Makeover

This time, we have to fix a problem that is not easy to see.
And the makeover experts we need to call in, are you, the Canadian public.

This is the most important page on this website.

This page contains a list of actions and ideas to take ownership of your health and treatment options. The only voice for this movement will be the positive actions of millions of concerned citizens. Your body is made up of individual cells that work as a whole. Canada is made up of 33 million individuals that need to act together, in support of the Charter of Health Freedom to make our national body strong.

Get In On The Act

There are many worthy movements for many worthy causes. They are all relevant. So, make it a personal choice to become active and help nature takes its course. Engage!

Everyone, whether ‘classed as’ grassroots or not, deserves the right, as a working Canadian, to participate in protecting their health, sovereignty, civil rights and livelihoods.

It’s Not What You Say, It’s What You Do.

Choose at least one way from the options below to make yourself part of effective change in Canada. Remind yourself and the government that you are competent to make decisions about our own body.

The Best Way To Change

CONTACT THE RIGHT PEOPLE

It’s all politics. The Use Your Democratic Rights page explains what you need to do make contact with the people that can make the change you are looking for. The “talking points’ you need to approach you MP can be found throughout this website. The problem can be outlined to your elected official by researching this website. Take points close to you from discussion papers on NHP Regulations, Know Your Rights and other subpages. The solution can be outlined by learning the key points in the Charter of Health Freedom.

The MOST important thing to do is to phone, send letters or visit the people who speak for you, your elected officials.

FIND YOUR MP

FIND YOUR MPP

You need to talk to these people. If they are speaking for you they have to HEAR AND KNOW what you think and feel about our laws or regulations. Unless you actually make direct contact they do not know you are concerned. There is no better way to change than to talk to your politicians. The most effective route to positive change is to let your elected representatives know what you think and how you feel.

1 petition* with 25 signatures is more than enough to have your MP to stand up in the house of commons and read it!
1 call or email* from you to your MP counts as 10 people
1 letter* from you counts as 100 people
1 personal visit* from you to your MP or MPP counts as 1000 people!

This means that you alone, can speak for an enormous number of Canadians who are having the same thoughts and concerns as you, but do not take action. You have probably heard the people you are representing referred to as the silent majority.

*Petition: Use only the petition found on the petition page of this website. It is correctly constructed for Parliament.

*Call or email: Learn clearly about what concerns you so you can be sure of yourself when you call. If you can’t say exactly what you want to, refer the MP to this website.

*Letter: Again, know the facts about your concern. Any one that stands out for you is all you need to focus on. Refer to websites, internet, books, studies or papers that confirm your reasons. Ask a question in the letter. It is the legal obligation of our political leaders to answer it.

*Personal visit: Make sure you take someone with you as a “witness” to your visit. Take a copy of the Charter, any books or articles that you can leave with them to review, perhaps a copy of Bill C51 (highlighted with your areas of question)

EXPRESS YOURSELF LIKE WENDY DUSSAULT DID!
Every day I have a 70 km commute from Didsbury to Calgary, travelling down the QE2, past Airdrie, down the Deerfoot and then pretty much to the center of Calgary to work. Then I get to make this trip again going home sometimes sitting on the Deerfoot for awhile but same 70 km trip home. On weekend’s I often head up to Red Deer or Edmonton and some times to Saskatchewan. So why am I telling you about my driving habits? I had this little sign put on my back window of my 2007 Toyota Highlander SUV. Now I finally feel like I am doing something, so many people will see this and hopefully make them wonder or wake up, something, anything. Short of putting honk if you agree I want to get the message out there and this is how I choose to do it.

Thank you for the great job your doing to protect our freedom of choice please keep up the fight, you have people who support everything your doing. Yours truly, Wendy Dussault
