I read it in my email never noticing that I needed to approve it. Why I don't know unless it was the links included. But that enhances the comment so again I am sorry for the delay, but thank you for the information. Throughtout the whole Put It On The Ballot Campaign, I met people visiting our city. It was a plus.

I talked to two Albertans at the Puritas rapid station yesterday.
