PRO-TIPS FOR CALLING
Are your faith beliefs protected? Are you being misinformed? MP Andrew Lawton answers this question, and a few others.
QUICK SUMMARY:
Are you being misinformed? This is how MP Lawton answers:
"The Liberals' entire defense to religious freedom concerns is that the Charter protects religious freedom. It does, but the Charter doesn't stop governments from violating your rights in real time. It takes years to get a court to affirm that a law is unconstitutional, as is still the case with the Emergencies Act.
Liberal MPs are claiming that religious expression and quoting religious scripture will never be illegal, but I have asked the Justice Minister, the Parliamentary Secretary to the Justice Minister, and the Chair of the Justice Committee if they will denounce Marc Miller's comments supporting prosecution for people who quote certain verses of scripture -- and none would do it.
Some MPs have said "nothing will change" with the removal of the religious defense from the Criminal Code. If that's the case, when why remove it?"

Here is a briefing video we prepared to help you.
Here are your PRO-TIPS!
1 - JUST DO IT | Every moment you wait is another call that could be made. Just go for it! You will have the hang of it in no time.
2 - PRAY | Pray before you call and ask the Lord to move powerfully to sway their hearts by your call, and the others they receive.
3 - KIND AND RESPECTFUL | Be respectful (it goes SO much further) and be kind. It is much easier for people to take you seriously if you don't come across as harsh. Plus, love is greater!
4 - CONCISE | Be concise. Avoid the temptation to get into long conversations. Make your point, thank them for their time, and keep going. Using your time well means you can make more calls, and that their line can be opened for the next person to get through.
5 - LEAVE MESSAGES | Leave messages when you get an answering machine. Your message matters.
6 - BUSY SIGNAL? | Don't be discouraged if you get one; this is a sign others are making calls too! Keep going and come back to the number when you are done with the others.
7 - DO MORE | If you fly through your 5 calls and have more time, use the bonus list and do more! More is better!
8 - REPORT YOUR STATS | When you are done, please remember to take a moment to register how many calls you did with us by clicking on this form. This will help us track our stats so that we can share it with our leaders and multiply our impact!
You got this! Thank you for taking action; it will make a difference.
