The CFPPC has taken
its Celebrate Canadian Flag Month campaign to Canadian
book publishers such as Penguin Group, McClelland and

chains such as Indigo, encouraging them to fly Canadian

Dear Publishers:
December marks the second annual Canadian Flag month,
created last year by the Canadian Flag Perpetual Pride
Campaign to encourage Canadian companies and government
departments to fly Canadian flags and to have old, worn
flags replaced.
As a Canadian publishing company whose works by Canadian
and international authors are distributed here and
around the world, your headquarters should shoe your
national pride by flying our national maple leaf emblem.
Why not, in commemoration of Canadian flag month,
display a maple leaf flag sticker on all Canadian-
authored books you publish and distribute?
Enjoy Canadian Flag Month, celebrated now in July and
December, by displaying our national symbol on all your
books.
Bob Smith,

CFPPC to
Unions: Show The Flag
The CFPPC is sending the following letter to a number of
Canadian unions including CUPE, the Ontario Federation of
Labor, Service Employees International Union, Amalgamated
Transit Workers Canada, Canadian Union of Postal Workers,
and the Ontario Public Service Employees Union. Others will
be added to the list in time:
November 23, 2011
The Canadian Flag Perpetual Pride Campaign, which will turn
two years old in December, is commemorating this anniversary
in part with a special campaign to ask all Canadian unions
to show their pride in Canada by displaying Canadian flags
at their headquarters, the offices of their locals and
whenever taking part in or supporting major public
demonstrations, such as those of the Occupy movement.
Nationalism is the answer to globalism, which has caused
great economic hardship, unemployment and damaged Canadian
labor through free trade and other anti-nationalist
corporate and government policies. We all should be proud of
our maple leaf national symbol as also a nationalist symbol
of a strong, determined labor movement and its opposition to
corporate encouragement of anti-union activities as
union-busting and near-poverty wage levels.
Let's show the pride of Canadian Labor by showing our
Canadian flag wherever Canadian labor makes its presence and
works to speak on behalf of working Canadians and against
the scourge of globalism!
Sincerely
Bob Smith
CFPPC Coordinator

Occupy Canada —
Be More Nationalist
The following letter was forwarded to a number of locales
of the Canadian Occupy movement:
The Canadian Flag Perpetual Pride Campaign wishes to remind
all Canadian participants that while your campaign for the
poor and neglected is laudable, you need to emphasize the
Canadian aspect of it by showing more Canadian flags at
Occupy demonstrations, so that Canadians will be reminded of
the importance of helping our own and to remind Canadian
politicians and legislators that charity begins at home.
We look forward to seeing more Canadian flags as your
movement across Canada continues and expands.
With best wishes,
Bob Smith
CFPPC Coordinator.
