Subject: Meeting Request: Canada’s Global Pandemic Response
Dear (MP Name),
My name is (xxx) and I am a constituent in your riding.
I’m writing to request a virtual meeting the week of August 24th to discuss Canada’s essential role in supporting a global response to COVID-19,
Canada’s cases of COVID-19 have dropped and remained relatively stable since May, but globally we are seeing infection continuing to spread.
Canada’s responsibility to protect Canadians also demands that everyone, everywhere is safe.
I am a member of the Grandmothers Advocacy Network (GRAN), a nonpartisan network of volunteers across Canada, who advocate in Canada and internationally for program and policy changes that will promote and protect the human rights of sub-Saharan African grandmothers, children and youth. We are joining with thousands of Canadians who are actively calling on Canada to commit at least 1% of our spending on COVID in new and additional money on an urgent basis to a global response that tackles the spread of the virus and mitigates its secondary impacts in the poorest countries.
I hope I can count on your support and look forward to an opportunity to speak with you the week of August 24th.
Thank you.
First and last name
