like copying/editing it to send to their own national representative:
---
Dear Sir/Madam,
I wish to inform you that I disapprove of the inclusion of Webcasting
and DRM in the Broadcast Treaty currently under debate in the UN's
World Intellectual Property Organization as it does not adhere to
individual rights and freedom of speech. As a Canadian, I truly hope
that you share my view and vote accordingly to ensure that citizen's
journalism and the voices of the people can continue to be heard and seen.
Accept, Sir/Madam, the assurance of my highest consideration.
Sincerely,
Casey Erin McKinnon U.E.
Montreal, Quebec
