Letters and petition sent. I hope everyone on this forum takes a minute to fill out the petition. For even more results a hand written letter to your representatives would be a valuable followup.

Glad to see you guys can all rally behind your cause. In Canada no one lifts a finger to better aviation and we slowly lose freedoms...
done, fingers crossed.

I am a COPA member and while I feel the organize does indeed contribute, I was more referring to the individuals that do nothing.
On the front page of the COPA website and the COPA newspaper, COPA asked everyone to write to Transport Canada to not pass off the airport approval process to municipalities. Out of 20,000 members, TC received 14 replies and not all of those 14 were COPA members.
In contrast, it looks like a lot of individuals in the US are pitching in personally to change this 3rd class medical.
That being said, I feel that COPA needs some serious change but that might not be a topic for this thread.
Happy to have had the chance to speak out on this proposal. Thanks for posting the link. I sent it to several friends as well.

We need to keep up the pressure to our elected officials on this! Movement is beginning to happen.

Here comes the voice of the beurocrats and people who make vast amounts of money with medical denials and re-certification (attempts).
We need to continue to send our letters to both houses of congress in support of this legislation. This is the way these things go, the special interests stepping in the way of the public's attempt at streamlining an out of control government in order to protect their own gravy trains.
If you haven't signed the petition or sent letters to your congressional representatives, please, please follow the link in the previous posts to do so. We can not allow this to be quashed.
If this thing is ever passed, I'll bet it won't include anyone who has ever had a special issuance. Which to my mind, is the point of the whole thing.
