Have you heard about Gail Vaz Oxlade's School Lender's Campaign?
If you haven't heard of it yet, now is the time to find out what she's talking about. She's asking everyone she knows, through her blog, twitter and facebook - to get involved. She asserts that the lending system is broken and we all need to take action to implore our MP's to make a difference.
You can - Join the School Lenders group on Facebook to stay tuned for announcements and you can write to your MP (Gail's got a nifty pre-drafted letter for us) to demand a change in legislation. Finally, during School Lenders Week (Nov 13 - 19) she wants Canadians to commit to not using credit for anything during that week.
It sounds pretty powerful to me! While I only have about 200 hundred visitor's a day - I know that some of you have blogs that are far more widespread then mine. Do you agree with Gail's message, will you help spread the word?
