I am also sharing a link where you can download a printable PDF of my paper petition opposing ADAP. You may collect signatures and then mail them back to me so I can present them to my MLA.
The completed signature sheets can be mailed to my MLA’s office (please note that the MLA’s office is not involved in organizing this petition):
Edmonton-Decore Constituency Office
#203, 8119 160 Ave NW
Edmonton, AB T5Z 0G3
Canada
(I am aware of the ongoing Canada Post strike, but I believe mail delivery will resume before the deadline. Canada Post is a Crown corporation and can be legislated back to work since it has a legal obligation to deliver mail. In the worst-case scenario, Canada Post can contract third-party companies to ensure mail delivery. The longest postal strike in Canadian history lasted 42 days — and every postal strike has ended.)
For any questions, you can message or email me at: darryl.learie@yahoo.com
When gathering signatures, please ensure the following information is included:
- Full name (printed)
- Full mailing address (town/city, postal code, province)
- Signature

There is also an Online Petition
In addition to the official paper petition, there is also an online petition. Although it is not officially recognized by the Alberta Legislature, it demonstrates public support, raises awareness of the issue, and can catch the attention of media and other influential people.
By signing both petitions, you strengthen the impact of this effort — helping us be heard both online and in the halls of government.
