A letter from the PM's office.

Every day I've been waiting and checking my email inbox for a letter from Prime Minister Stephen Harper. I know he must be really busy and my mom told me that I might not get a reply, but that I should keep being a voice for our sharks and our oceans. On Friday, I got an email from "The Office of the Prime Minister". It was sent to me and Mr. Ritz and Mr. Ashfield too. Here it is:

You may be assured that your concerns have been carefully reviewed. As the issue that you have raised falls within the portfolios of the Honourable Gerry Ritz, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, and the Honourable Keith Ashfield, Minister of Fisheries, I have taken the liberty of forwarding copies of your message to them.

I am going to email the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and the Minister of Fisheries. I know the sharks would want me too. I have to do this for our sharks and our oceans. Will you email them too?
