Act Now: Let's win Regularization ( Update)

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his 38 Cabinet Ministers will finally be discussing regularization this May. They can either make a decision immediately, or continue to delay. They can create a small and exclusionary program for just a few or ensure permanent resident status for all undocumented people. Together, let’s make sure they do the right thing and ensure status for all. Here’s how: 
(1) Visit Cabinet Minister offices, talk to the constituency staff and drop off letters
(2) Call the Cabinet Ministers everyday
(3) Send emails, write letters and deliver petitions to Cabinet Ministers.
Over the next few weeks, we must push as hard as we can, get as loud as we can to make sure that Cabinet Ministers create a program to ensure permanent resident status for all undocumented people. But if they choose to delay, we won’t stop, let’s keep up the pressure over the summer and beyond to win. 
(1) Visit Cabinet Minister offices, talk to the constituency staff and drop off lettersStep 1: Find the closest constituency office near you.

Step 2: Check online using Google to see when they are open. Constituency offices are usually open to the public between 10am to 4pm, Monday – Thursday, but make sure to confirm. Pick a time that you can go and invite friends to come with you if you can. Let us know when you are going so we can encourage those nearby to join you, email us at [email protected]. 
Step 3: Print out these three documents:

• Personalize this letter and print it out
• Regularization Policy brief
• Cabinet Minister posters (to take photos with) 

Step 4: Go to the Constituency Office. When you arrive, tell them you are a local resident and there to speak about regularization. Ask the staff to pass on the message to the Cabinet Minister that local residents and voters support an inclusive regularization program that grants permanent resident status to all undocumented people. Ask for the contact information of the person you spoke to, and tell them you will be calling to ask what the Minister said. If you don’t feel comfortable talking, you can also just give them the letter and the policy brief. 
Step 5: A few days later, call the office to ask if they passed on your message to the Minister.
Step 6: Email us and let us know what happened – [email protected]
