Media Advisory: June 18, 2009 Press Conference

Thurs. June 18, 2009, TD Bank Tower, 66 Wellington St W. 54th Fl., 11:30 AM

What do Harper, Ignatieff and Layton and May all agree on? They agree Canadians need to stand up for the families of those who put their lives on the line every day in the name of freedom.

Like many other great Canadians, Harper, Ignatieff, Layton and May have lent their names to the True Patriot Love Foundation because they understand the sacrifices families make to allow our soldiers to serve.

Join us with Gen (Ret’d) Rick Hillier and other supporters as we officially launch the True Patriot Love Foundation. The Foundation was established by Shaun Francis, Chairman & CEO, Medcan Health Management Inc. We will be announcing the details of a Tribute Dinner in support of the Canadian Military Families Fund, established by Gen Hillier to address the urgent and unforeseen needs of military families.

This initiative has brought together political, corporate and community leaders who want to recognize the contributions of Canadian military families. The committee plans to raise 1.75 + million dollars in our first year.
