BC’s Lieutenant Governor has just asked John Horgan to step in as Premier, and he said yes. Furthermore, Horgan said to media “I want to focus as quickly as possible in putting in place a cabinet”. It’s now our job to do absolutely everything we can to send Horgan the message that we want Lana Popham as our Minister of Agriculture! I need all of you reading this to call the NDP Caucus Reception at the Legislature and Email John Horgan. Here’s exactly what you need to do: 1. Call 1-250-387-3655 and let them know you’re calling as a supporter of the online petition to appoint Lana Popham as Minister of Agriculture. Then request that your support for Lana as Minister can be passed along. Leave a message if they do not answer. 2. Email John Horgan at ​oppositionleader@leg.bc.ca​ AND ​ndp@leg.bc.ca using your own email or the following draft: “Dear Mr. Horgan, I am writing to you today to ask that you appoint Lana Popham as your Minister of Agriculture upon forming government. Mrs. Popham has served as your Party’s critic for Agriculture for years. She’s been your party’s most prominent voice on agriculture and has travelled across the province in this regard. Mrs. Popham has worked tirelessly for farmers, food producers, agricultural associations, food advocacy groups and many more. With your new position as Premier, it’s time for you to give her the Agriculture Ministry so she can continue her outstanding work for agriculture in British Columbia. Thank you for hearing my concerns, [YOUR FULL NAME] [YOUR CITY]” Please take these two extraordinary actions, they will truly make a difference to Lana’s chance to become Minister. And if the response you receive is anything more than “Thank you, I’ll pass this along” email me: sophiechase2001@gmail.com Thank you, Sophie Collins
