I wrote my letter to Andy Fillmore this morning! :) If...
Signed! I don't think it could hurt for the petition organizers to send along a copy to whoever Deanna's MP is.
Petitions don't always spark change put they do spark awareness. I really hope that Deanna gets her citizenship. She's a wonderful Ambassador for Canadian figure skating and deserves...
