Thank you to everyone who came to Parliament House on Wednesday 31st Oct, especially those who travelled long distances and who brought children. The pink banners and MADGE badges looked great. Tammy Lobato (ALP), Colleen Hartland (Greens), Jenny Mikakos (ALP), Martin Foley (ALP) and Peter Kavanagh (DLP) came out to meet us. We gave them letters, cards and petitions asking for an extension of the ban on GM canola. Over 12,000 people had signed which is a huge feat considering most Victorians do not even know the ban will expire in February 2008.
