 Just thought I'd pass this on..

 Military/RCMP Veterans
 Against annuity
 Benefit reduction at age 65
 Dear Friends and Supporters,
 We need your help! This is the last mile for Bill C-201 to survive! On 
 April 21, 2010, if members of the House of Commons fail to support it, 
 then it will die!
 All Veterans and Friends are urged to write/phone their members of 
 Parliament to seek a YES vote for bill C-201. This is Bill C-201 FINAL 
 debate and vote.
 Remember if it fails, it will not be re-instated until a new Government is 
 elected! It is therefore up to us to fight our pension issue.
 With any Mission, you can stand shoulder to shoulder, you can join the 
 fight, or you can accept the STATUS QUO!
 Please ensure that all Politicians understand that Military/RCMP Pension 
 funds are SACRED to Veterans.
 Please distribute far and wide, again and again!!
 Sincerely,
 John Labelle

 Subject: Military/RCMP Veterans Pension issue - Bill C-201.
 Dear Honourable Leaders and Members of the House
 It has been over 44 years since the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) was enacted. 
 For the past five (5) years, under the Leadership of Mr. Peter Stoffer, 
 MP, a number of Private Member ' s Bills have been introduced to the 
 House of Commons. The latest, Bill C-201 was introduced to the House as an 
 initiative to terminate the unjust/unfair Veterans CPP pension deduction 
 at age 65 or sooner if they become disabled.
 Veterans believe that Bill C-201 is a Veterans pension issue and not a 
 Political issue. It is therefore requested that all Political Leaders 
 authorize their delegates a democratic free vote when Bill C-201 is 
 presented in the House of Commons on April 21, 2010 for its final debate 
 and vote.
 Veterans seek no funds from the Public Account! The 20 billion dollars 
 surplus that was depleted from our pension account would have been more 
 than sufficient funds to pay for our untouched/unreduced Annuity. 
 Furthermore, take into consideration that it will assist the Veterans who 
 require their full pension the most and it would be revenue neutral. The 
 Government coffers would receive more than 60% of it back in one form of 
 tax or another.
 What financial consideration is given to our Military/RCMP spouses? Many 
 of them lost their career aspirations while supporting their spouse ' s 
 career! Their dedication resulted in a loss of their CPP benefits. They 
 have accepted the responsibilities of being a Mom and a Dad at many 
 locations across Canada and around the world.
 Summary:
 This is the perfect opportunity for all Leaders of Canada to express to 
 the Military/RCMP Veterans and their Families their appreciation for the 
 exemplary services they have provided, on a regular basis, to our Country. 
 Vote yes, support Bill C-201 and demonstrate to them, their Spouses and 
 their Children a tremendous gratitude, fairness and justice. It ' s the 
 least that can be done for the great sacrifices they have provided! 
 Calgary Legion food bank and charities for Veterans may not be necessary!
 Military/RCMP Veterans have gallantly served our Country Canada Veterans 
 deserve our gratitude and respect, both while serving and in retirement! 
 They deserve nothing less than to spend their Golden Years with the 
 Financial Dignity they and their Families have paid for in so many 
 different ways!
