David Eby <AG.Minister@gov.bc.ca>

Many of you have written (thank you!!) and used this address. It might be a good idea to send it again using this address for AG Eby. I will share some of the letters that have been written in tomorrow’s update.
Please, if you have some personal experience re. Direction No. 4 and Meter Choices, consider writing to the Attorney General. We need to let him know what has been happening thanks to this discriminatory law.

My eyes are sensitive and I find the red much easier on them so I have said that I live in Newfoundland. My screen goes reddish mid-afternoon and my eyes are so grateful.
