Canadian ‘Free Software in Government’ campaign launched

If you’re interested in seeing Canadian governments adopt a ‘Free Software First’ policy, take a look at the material, and start things off with a letter to your MP, MLA or anyone else you can think of.”
The goals of the campaign are to:

• Educate ourselves and others and organize groups to educate and support efforts by individuals, businesses and governments to adopt and use Free Software
• Lobby elected representatives to adopt this policy through email, fax, voice phone and personal contact
• Raise this issue in every election, local, municipal, provincial and federal.
• Log the track record of candidates on this issue and urge voters to consider this issue in casting their votes

Sounds good to me.”
