Default Please Sign This Petition To Get OWN To Air 65 Red Roses!
Hi All,

Recently I started a petition at Change.org to get the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) to finally air the award-winning film 65_Redroses, which was supposed to be shown this past spring. The film chronicles the heroic struggle of Eva Markvoort who suffered most of her life with terminal Cystic Fibrosis. She died of CF at 25 on March 27, 2010.

Problem is, OWN has the distribution rights and therefore Canada cannot legally sell any American the DVD of the film - or even allow us to view it for free online as Canadians can. And 65_Redroses has already been shown in other countries.

Please sign this petition and spread it to anyone you feel may be interested!
