Letter from Lisa Weir to Bernard Richard, Ombudsman:

 March 25/08

Good day Mr. Richard,

I am writing to you because in your role as an advocate for youth in this province, I feel it is pertinent to express my concerns regarding the implementation of the Intensive French program. I would like to begin by stating that I am against this decision. I am against it because I believe it is wrong for a government to remove choice from citizens under just about any possible circumstance. I am against it most wholeheartedly, however, because of how this program will affect my daughter and no doubt, many others who are in a similar situation.

Letter from Lisa Weir to Stephane Dion:

Hello Mr. Dion,

I am a life-long resident of NB and usually an ardent supporter of the Liberal party. I am gravely concerned, however, with what the Liberal party of NB is doing to damage what Liberals overall in Canada. Today I write to you because my main concern is the recent decision by the Graham government to remove the choice of which language our children are educated in, something I have believed to be protected under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. I guess I was wrong about that fact, though, after all these years.
