Looks good. except I don't think we need to do 3 on a wiki page cuz
we'll end up adding 70-100 groups. We can each go off and find
support from our networks and then compile a list of groups who have
agreed to back it. If there's any missing networks of groups, we fill
in then.
Also, we'll need it translated if you want it to be a national thing.
The letter is a great start! I'll see if I can contribute anything
tomorrow. Tracey is also pretty great at those kinds of things. We
can definitely get her to go over it. :-)
OnlineRights Canada can whip up a petition for us. But I think they
should clearly identify it as a CivicAccess push.

a campaign for this? Hows that sound?
