letters to the Editor, request for action
Hi Folks,
There are three things you can do to help:
1. Please send letters to the Editor they are Very Effective. They generate media interest in this issue. We need all the coverage we can get.
Each day all the City Councillors and Mayor receive an envelope of newspaper clippings on City issues. Please e-mail each newspaper separately - if you send your letter and copy all the newspapers on the same e-mail there is a good chance it won't get picked up.
Letters to the Editor must include name address and daytime phone number, so that the newspaper can contact you and verify that the letter came from you.

Hello,
As a candidate for Toronto City Councillor in Ward 6 Etobicoke-Lakeshore, I am pleased to have the opportunity to represent our community.
Regarding the skateboard park development currently slated for Colonel Sam Smith Park – this is an issue that is very important to me and yourselves alike. It is my goal to seek a “win-win” solution that will preserve the park, and also to build a top-notch skateboard facility at a more appropriate place in our Ward.
I have an idea designed to increase attention to the plight of the park that I would like your feedback on and assistance with. Would you be interested in coordinating a public art project to place/install (environmentally sound) works of art in the park? We will need to act quickly and release a call to all community artists who may wish to participate. We can even hold an “opening reception” in the park as well…
While I am currently preparing my website and other campaign information, I would be happy to discuss my campaign with you further in person or via telephone. If this is a project you would like to support, please let me know as this is a very time sensitive activity.
Thank you and best regards,
Carson McKee
Candidate for Toronto City Councillor
Ward 6 Etobicoke-Lakeshore
