letter to our MP

 Dear Rachel,
Congratulations on your imminent retirement: you've been, in our opinion, and exemplary representative.
This is an appeal to continue just a bit longer. There's a good deal of unfinished business, and we are worried that Mr Poilievre would do as he promised, and undo all the progress you and the Liberals have made.
As you well know, the Conservatives may do so anyway. But holding off the election makes that more difficult.
I was recently talking to my brother, who lives in Ms May's constituency. As usual, I complained about Mr Singh parroting Conservative talking points. He's a much more devout NDPer than I, and  said he's a fan of Mr Singh, particularly crediting him with the dental program, to which both he and his wife subscribe. (Of course, that's gone, if the conservatives form the next government and do as promised!)
There are numerous other reasons why waiting till the end of the term is appropriate. But you already know this.
So I hope and trust you're with Charlie Angus, when he says he hates Mr Poilievere more than he dislikes the Liberals and will not vote with the Conservatives to overthrow the present government.
Yours,
