Letter to world leaders...

So far I've sent this letter to President Barack Obama, President Enrique Peña Nieto of Mexico, Prime Minister Julia Gillard of Australia, and Nelson Mandela...


Dear Prime Minister Gillard,

I am writing to you with utmost respect for you and your beautiful country.
Our political leader, Prime Minister Stephen Harper, is not doing my people very much good. Mr. Harper is not upholding the laws set down in working with us, and is undoing the treaties signed between my people and the crown.

As a result, the First Nations people of Canada have risen up against him on a grassroots level. The movement is called Idle No More, we have been rallying, putting up road blocks, and having peaceful demonstrations in opposition of his harmful legislations he is putting through our parliament.

One of our First Nations leaders is now on a hunger strike, going on day nine, demanding that she meet with him to discuss the state of her community and all her people across Canada.

I am writing you to request you kindly ask Prime Minister Harper to take our movement seriously, and to meet with Chief Theresa Spence (who is making her last stand mere steps from Parliament)

Thank you for your cooperation,
Sincerely,

Damian Abrahams.
