NOTE: Next week’s Canadian Experience instalment — Bureaucratic Nightmares: The Public Service and the Future of Canada — will be posted on Monday (July 12).
As we announced last Wednesday, we kicked off the BringBackTheAct.ca campaign — a grassroots effort to petition Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the British parliament to allow the original BNA Act to be brought back to Canada. To sign the online petition and explore the “Bring Back the Act” website, you can click here.
Over the past few days, the initiative has attracted some attention from both local and national media — these links have been posted on the Press/Contact page of the BringBackTheAct.ca website; however, we would like to highlight three links in particular.
Right out of the gate on June 30, Canada’s History posted their podcast of Nelle Oosterom interviewing our own Ian E. Wilson. And just yesterday morning, both Ian and Lori Abittan, Multimedia Nova President/CEO were interviewed by Radio Canada International’s The Link with Marc Montgomery.

From time to time, we will be posting “Bring Back the Act” campaign updates here on The Canadian Experience and also on the Bring Back the Act Facebook page. In the meantime, we also encourage you to leave a comment about the “Bring Back the Act” effort on its “Speak up here!” page.
