Peter C. Newman signs the petition!

I did not know that the Canadian writer, journalist and longtime Maclean's editor was also a naval captain in the Canadian Naval Reserves. He is petition signature number 5814, and wrote:

As this petition indicates, usage of the Royal Canadian Navy was never legally removed from the books -- and this was the Navy we joined and swore allegiance to -- and continue to serve.

Indeed.

Now I wonder if he would be willing to write an article in Maclean's magazine?

  1. Actually that might be a great idea. It would bring to attention the fact that Canada has no Navy in the Legal sense of the word, hasnt since 1968. The more high profile people speaking out about this might put the pressure on Mr Peter Macay. Perhaps Good Luck
