Greetings , Friends,
As you might have heard and seen, the CBC has launched a contest to nominate A Great Canadian (or The Greatest Canadian). The 10 top winners of the contest will have a CBC documentary made of them. Would it not be great to have a documentary made of David Orchard's work over the years to fight for our sovereignty, our environment and democracy! This is where you come in! As this is a numbers game, let us make our votes count — to nominate David Orchard as a Great Canadian! You can do it by calling 1-866-303-VOTE (8683) AND you can also nominate through the Great Canadian web page at: http://www.cbc.ca/greatest/ See the rules at http://www.cbc.ca/greatest/rules/index.html, and remember that the nominations close on the 16th of May. Furthermore, you can call in your nomination to a national open line show, CBC's Cross Country Checkup, TOMORROW, SUNDAY, MAY 9TH, and although the blurb says "greatest Canadian of all time", don't be deterred by it. "Great" is good enough! Below is the description from the Cross Country Checkup: CBC Radio One and on the Country Canada channel Sunday, May 9 at 5 p.m. AT / 5:30 NT/ 4 p.m. ET/ 3 p.m. CT/ 2 p.m. MT / 1 p.m. PT. "Think of the one person who rises above the rest and deserves to be named The Greatest Canadian. Submit your nomination through this website, or call our toll-free phone line at 1-866-303-VOTE (8683). You can make one nomination per address, so make it count. Be sure to send us your pick by May 16, when the nomination period closes." You can listen to the programme via the internet at: http://www.cbc.ca/checkup/audio.html Let us hope that some of us will get through to the programme, with a "good word" for the deserving David Orchard!
