Subject: Urgent Appeal to Amplify Our Efforts and Recruit Five More Signatures Each to Save Policy 713


Dear [Petition Signers],


I hope this message finds you well, and I sincerely thank you for standing up against discrimination by signing the Petition to save Policy 713. Today, I am reaching out to you with a sense of urgency and a heartfelt request to double our efforts and recruit five more signatures each. We must unite and demonstrate to policymakers in New Brunswick that Policy 713 must be upheld and that there is no place for 2SLGTBQA1+ hate and misinformation in our society.


The fight to save Policy 713 has encountered a new challenge: a counter-petition aimed at its repeal. This alarming development highlights the lack of leadership exhibited by our Premier, Minister of Education and others who have allowed discriminatory practices and misinformation to prevail. We cannot let this setback deter us. Instead, we must rise above it with unwavering determination and stronger support for the policy's preservation.


Our collective voice, expressed through the Petition, carries immense weight and is a powerful instrument to draw attention to the importance of Policy 713. By expanding our efforts and garnering additional signatures, we can amplify the impact of our message and demonstrate the widespread support for equality, inclusivity, and justice for all residents of New Brunswick.


Here are a few ways you can contribute to our collective efforts:


Share the Petition Widely: Contact your friends, family, colleagues, and social media networks. Please encourage them to sign the Petition and urge others to do the same. Together, we can create a ripple effect that spreads the message of equality and counters the efforts to repeal Policy 713.


Engage in Constructive Conversations: Initiate dialogues with individuals who may have differing opinions. Encourage open-minded discussions that foster understanding and empathy. Share personal stories or experiences to illustrate the positive impact of Policy 713 and dispel any misinformation or prejudice.


Collaborate with Local Organizations: Seek alliances with local organizations championing LGBTQ+ rights. Their support can amplify our cause and bring additional credibility to our efforts. Together, we can make a stronger case for preserving Policy 713.


Mobilize Events and Actions: Organize peaceful protests, awareness campaigns, or community gatherings to raise visibility for the cause. Engage the media and local influencers to broaden our reach and garner more significant support.


Communicate with Elected Representatives: Reach out to your local representatives, including your Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA), city councillors and Member of Parliament (MP). Share your concerns about the potential repeal of Policy 713 and emphasize its crucial role in promoting a society free from discrimination and hatred.


The journey toward justice and equality is never without obstacles; together, we have the power to overcome them. Let us demonstrate the strength of our conviction and the unwavering commitment to preserving Policy 713. Together, we can create a New Brunswick where every individual, regardless of their gender or sexual orientation, feels safe, accepted, and valued.


Thank you for your unwavering dedication to this vital cause. Let us rise above the challenges and make our voices heard louder than ever. Together, we can bring about positive change.


With gratitude,


Don
