>
> Off the top of my head I believe the strategy will be different for the
> different proceedings. For the
> petitions to the Governor in Council I believe the best plan of action will
> be writing a detailed letter
> to your local MP. Telnet has offices in 3 federal ridings, and we have
> actually made appointments to
> speak to the members of parliament from all 3. In the case of Whitby we
> actually have Flaherty himself as
> an MP, so that was a difficult one to get an appointment for but we managed.
> For the Bell UBB tariff
> filing the best bet will be to file an intervention with the CRTC.

> I'll give the community some more details after my conference call tomorrow
