比爾在這封日期為二月18日的信中說：「我認為全球營救提出了一個人道和慈悲的方案來解救這些處於悲慘境地的無辜孤兒」。
「我代表法輪功學員的孤兒，相信加拿大必須進行這項努力。我促請你（部長）與全球營救制定一個可行的、可立即實施的計畫」。
據全球營救發言人阿麗絲-黃說：「這是加拿大國會議員首次向移民部長提出營救被迫害致死的中國法輪功學員的孤兒來加拿大的建議」。「我們相信，基於人道理由，加拿大政府將接收這些孤兒」。
阿麗絲-黃呼籲公司、團體或個人支持全球營救即將在5月舉行的營救孤兒慈善音樂會。所有音樂會的門票收入將用於營救孤兒項目計畫，公眾也可直接捐款給孤兒營救基金，詳情可打電話416-893-4492詢問或發郵件到[email protected]。
據全球營救網站稱，對法輪功的迫害影響了上千萬中國兒童。確認有5名兒童死亡，最小的只有8個月，有18名孤兒急需營救。
加拿大政府在過去五年中曾經營救十幾名中國法輪功學員到加拿大。

Dear Minister,
I am writing to ask you to give urgent consideration to the request of the Global Mission to Rescue Persecuted Falun Gong Practitioners (GMR) regarding their plan to sponsor 10 of the known children who have been left orphaned due to their parents』 persecution by the Chinese authorities.
I believe that the GMR has proposed a humane and compassionate solution to the deplorable conditions in which these innocent children into the have been left. Since your government has chosen to embrace China』s emergence into the global economy, it also has an obligation to those who have been left to suffer from china』s inexcusable violation of human rights. I urge you to ensure that your department takes the lead in making it possible for these innocents to come to Canada.
The GMR has arranged to provide financial assistance to these refuges, provided that the Canadian government will supply them with special visas to come to this country. This sponsorship will ultimately make this resettlement successful.
I believe that Canada must undertake this effort on behalf of the orphaned children of Falun Gong practitioners. I would urge you to develop a workable plan with members of the GMR that can be implemented without delay.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your early reply.
Sincerely Yours
Bill Siksay MP
