Subject: NB MLA to Introduce Private Members Bill for Year of War Bride

Hi Everyone. I have confirmation today that New Brunswick MLA TJ Burke,
grandson of British War Bride Jean Paul, will be the first to introduce a
private members bill in the New Brunswick legislature to officially
recognize 2006 as the Year of the War Bride in New Brunswick and to mark the
60th anniversary of the arrival of the War Brides in Canada.

Now we have to do the same across the country in every province and
territory. Who knows MLAs in their province? Who knows if there are MLAs
with a war bride in their family? These are the people we have to target.
