Brenda Martin and the Canadian PM

Steven Harper has never been accused of too much compassion. And, the situation of BRENDA MARTIN in a Mexican jail won't change that. Hard of heart, deaf to opinions other than his own, a bully of the first order.
BRENDA MARTIN is now in the hospital unit in the Mexican jail in which she has languished for 2 years. Apparently charged with being an accessory in a fraud case involving her former employer (who has stated that she was not at any time involved in his nefarious doings), MARTIN was not permitted a lawyer or a translator when she was brought before a judge. Her human rights were trampled upon, according to her lawyer, and her friend in Trenton, Ontario.
Her appeal to this injustice was denied early this week.
As MARTIN languishes in jail, now at 90 pounds, the Minister says she has send "notes" to the Mexican government, and is now powerless to do anything more.
If MARTIN dies in jail, without any intervention by the PM or more assertive measures by the Minister, it will definitely be time to go to the polls.
There are so many examples that illustrate that this man should not have been elected, nor should he continue in office. But the deaths of Canadians due to negligence of the government is unacceptable, not only to me, but also to many others.
A Federal election costs somewhat over $2.5 millin per constituency. This time, it will be money well spent, to get rid of this government, and its "leader."
He is not a "leader." He is a bully who now says that the bill on RESPs must not be implemented. This bill was passed by parliament. He was having a snooze when it went though.

Let's get to the polls. It is time for a new government, one with a leader who does not bully parliament, does not act in secret, one who respects the people of this country.

Please email the PM to take action on behalf of BRENDA MARTIN. Now.
