What would be a good way to word an e-mail to my MP to express my disgust for this bill even making it this far?

I don't buy Canadian per se, I just don't buy anything from the United States or Israel.

Carney is a clown. Still better than Polieve, but a clown nonetheless. I hate that we're essentially powerless to stop this unless you're willing to throw your life away doing something drastic but necessary.

Everyday we inch closer and closer to political chaos and civil unrest.

I think Police unions need to be abolished. They're clearly corrupt. It should be brought to a vote because these guys should be going to prison for life over dumb shit like this.

They drew a gun on a shoplifter and killed a baby. How is this guy even allowed to sleep soundly at night?

You can experience a full Chinese holiday and the culture behind it in China. I don't understand dedicating a whole month to Chinese culture and what it's being to the table for Canada.

Bringing up old policies and treaties from over 100 years ago and acting like anyone alive today is negatively impacted by them is disingenuous.

One could also argue the exclusivity of the Chinese community in British Columbia that refuses to do business with anyone but Chinese nationals, like their exclusive taxi services.

There's a reason we don't have "German History Month" or "Australian Heritage Month." It has nothing to do with Canada and it's culture. If you're Chinese, and you move here, there is a distinct Chinese-Canadian culture you can go to. If you desire a more catered Chinese experience you can travel to China.

If the goal is education, there is no benefit to Chinese heritage that justifies Canada having an entire month dedicated to it.

This. Is. Dumb.

I feel like stories like these need more light than they're currently getting. The United States is free to do what they want and far be it from me to tell them what is morally correct as a Canadian, but more Canadians need to be aware that the US is a safe destination for day visits like shopping, but that's it.
