I received the exact same form letter response from Mike Blackburn based on a letter I sent. What made me feel more effective was meeting with my MLA and explaining my concerns with the program in person, which he agreed to pass along within his party. I think writing letters has its place but real impact comes from face to face meetings. They get you're serious about the issue then. Emails/letters are easy to ignore or can be responded to with 1/2 effort.
