The services provided through this site are available to any individual or organization anywhere in the world willing to support justice initiatives in Canada on a provincial or national basis.

This free public service site allow readers to conveniently participate in two categories of letter writing campaigns 1) public and 2) private to various recipient groups selectable based on the content of the letter campaign.  For those who may have difficulty in composing letters, volunteers will assist those seeking help with their letters.

Public letter campaigns
Public campaigns allow many individuals to send personalized letters to a specific group of recipients. Currently, recipients include MPP's and MP's in Ottawa.  Public campaigns will have pre-formatted template letters for members of the public to conveniently send to the various selected recipients. Template letters and mailing  lists will be already organized prepared for readers who simply have to fill in  their contact information on the forms and the mailing program will handle the  technical issues of sending the letter out to the applicable recipients. Those  who have difficulty in writing their own letters will find this service very convenient.

If you have a campaign idea which you believe would be of interest to other Canadians  and would like this site to post a public campaign, then contact us by email to arrange this.  Send an email to info@canadacourtwatch.com

Private letter campaigns
Private campaigns allow one individual to send their own personalized letter out to specific recipient groups such as MP’s or MPP’s. If you have a letter or need help in composing a letter that you believe would be of interest  to any group of elected officials anywhere in Canada or to another specific group  then contact us at the email below. A volunteer will contact you and help your voice be heard.  Participants may also create their own recipient lists if they wish to send letters out to other groups such as municipal representatives of their own community or school boards, etc.

All personal information is kept confidential and used only for campaign purposes.  Recipients of your personal communication should have correct contact information of those sending  letters so that they are able to respond to the writer either by regular mail or by email.  Important: Those applying to register on this site and who wish to use the services must provide full and accurate contact information or they will not be able to use the services provided.  Administrators of the site may contact those who register on the site by phone to validate information.  Those who attempt to abuse this service by providing false contact information may have access to the site blocked.

General
Those who register on the site will be invited from time to time to participate  in new public letter writing campaigns intended to promote justice, accountability and  transparency within the justice and child protection systems. It is hoped that over a long period of time and as the number of  Canadians who participate grow, this site will become a significant tool in the movement to promote positive changes with those issues which are the focus of  this site and its contributors.

Would you like to assist others to write letters so that they can be heard?
