Hello and Welcome! Here you will find events that have happened in the Medicine Hat riding as well as in Ottawa. I am pleased to update you on my activities since being elected to the House of Commons. LaVar __________________________________________________________________ LaVar is pleased to support MP Candice Hoeppner's summer tour to rally support for her Private Member's Bill C-391. Conservative MP Candice Hoeppner has launched a new website to promote her summer tour to ridings across Canada to educate, update and dispell myths getting the message out that its time to end the long-gun registry. Hoeppner's bill was studied at the Public Safety Committee this spring until the Oppostition-dominated committee passed a motion in June to not proceed further with Bill C-391. The motion will be voted on in the House of Commons on September 22, 2010 and if passed will stop Ms. Hoeppner's Bill. The goal of this summer tour is to ensure that she has the necessary votes to see her bill pass. Hoeppner's new "Scrap the Long-Gun Registry" website provides information about the actual cost of maintating the long-gun registry, the summer tour and suggestions on how supporters can take action to help end the registry.
