Dear Mr.. Harper
As a military mother, first I would like to say Thank You for all you are doing to support our boys and girls that are serving our great country.
Mr.. Harper, there are quite a few of us parents, serving members, retired members, husbands, and wives who think that November 11 should be a national holiday, this is the day that we the people of Canada should be at services for our veterans not at work at the local Wal-Mart Canadian Tire etc. November 11 should be a day that the average Canadian can spend with their families and with the people that have seen the battles of years gone by.A day where we can reflect on the men and women in uniform that have been laid to rest.It should be a day that we can bow our heads and remember the names of the soldiers within our family and think of the families of the men of the Canadian military that have lost their lives over the last few years.
Mr.. Harper I know that you have supported the families of the military and now I hope you will listen to the people of Canada and declare November 11 a national holiday so all of Canada can take the time to remember.
