A little Hope

Prime Minister Paul Martin reviews the petitions YOU signed!
YOU DID IT!
In July, when WWF-Canada launched our Do Not Drill campaign, we had two goals. One was to get 40,000 signatures on a petition asking Prime Minister Paul Martin to speak out on the U.S. plans to drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The other goal was to have the Prime Minister make that statement publicly.
Because of you, we blew the doors off both of those goals!
Here's what has happened since you signed your petition:
To date, we have more than 71,000 signed petitions that have been delivered to Mr. Martin.
We've personally met with Mr. Martin, along with a few other prominent Canadian conservationists.
On August 12, the Minister of Environment, Stéphane Dion, made a public statement in opposition to drilling in ANWR.
On August 23, Mr. Martin himself publicly reaffirmed the Canadian government's opposition to this drilling.
We've personally met with Frank McKenna, our ambassador to the U.S., in Washington. He has also personally met with key members of Congress and continues to do so.
We participated in a massive rally in Washington, attended also by Robert Kennedy Jr., John Kerry and Hillary Clinton, to speak out against drilling in ANWR.
As you may know, the vote that may allow drilling in ANWR has been delayed. Until then, we will be anxiously waiting, along with all of you, to hear the outcome. Please check for updates in the news and on donotdrill.ca.
In the meantime, regardless of the outcome of the vote, together we have much to be proud of. We've truly made a difference on this issue.
You have our deepest gratitude.
On behalf of WWF-Canada, wildlife and wild spaces,
Mike Russill
