Thanks you

Honorable Minister,
I am writing to thank you Minister Day, for having believed in the minority Sinhalese when the Tamils held more popularity among the Liberal Cabinet, way back when you were the Opposition Leader. I still remember how you stood up in parliament and spoke up for a tiny nation called Sri Lanka, who were ravaged by terrorism. It was your leadership that we were able to convince the media that what was happening in Sri Lanka was nothing short of terrorism and rebut the Liberals who turned aside allowing the Tamil Tigers to work freely.

And then it was you, who when you came into power in 2006, banned the LTTE as a terrorist organization and cut the flow of funding.

The Canadians have now seen what damage the Liberals did while in power, that shook a nation, and deprived innocent children of a normal childhood.

I still hold a letter that you sent as the Opposition Leader, and have framed it, and will always be precious to me of what you showed a tiny nation.

Whatever damage that the Liberals did while in power, that had made so many Tamils in Sri Lanka cry in despair, you changed it, and have brought blessings to Canada because of your forethought and understanding of minority. And that what has been so important about the Conservative Government, is that it has shown Canadians its not the vote, but the people that counts.

Yours sincerely,
Angelina Perera
