The Filipino Patriots Society Of Canada ( FPSP ) held a gathering on April 2 , 2017 at Slocan Park Vancouver .
The emcee at the event of the Vancouver based FPSP (# DUTERTE Event in Vancouver , # 2April2017 ) was sales executive Ed Ubalde of Toyota Granville .
People like him are now coming out and are all over in the Philippines and abroad . They are businessmen , sale executives , civic leaders , religious leaders , house wives , socialites , ordinary office employees and workers , professionals , retirees and many others numbering by the millions .
These demography of supporters of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte suddenly found the importance of patriotism , volunteerism , civic duty and direct personal involvement for God and country .
They have since surfaced in the 2016 Duterte presidential campaign and they are more passionate , well intentioned and determined . They will come at a moments notice , volunteer for an event and dig into their own pockets .
For an example , the # FilipinoPatriotsVancouver Board of Directors lead by Chairman Reynaldo Bahena , members and volunteers dominates the scene despite the small fragment of political personalities like me .
This year , another group of well intentioned leaders like Sands Gumboc and Emely Grezola Brewer volunteered to host the # U n i t e d D D S Va n c o u v e r events on February 25 and April 2 , 2017 and they work with us in the spirit of cooperation .
If this phenomena continues and a President like Duterte gets elected in the hands of these kind of volunteerism and enthusiastic patriotism , then MAKE NO MISTAKE ! The Philippines and Filipino people would have been in to win their own battles to ensure change
in their own country and dismantle the shackles and bondage of political patronage , corruption and oligarchy now enslaving the Filipino people .
With the guiding light from pastors and spiritual leaders like Freddie Bagunu ( alone on the right leading the prayer for National Change and Repentance ) even in the spiritual realm to invoke change from the old evil ways towards the change of character and ways , then by Gods ’ grace , He will hear the cry of His people and heal the land . So be it ! Officers of the FPSC who organized the event are the following :
Reynaldo & JC Bahena , Glen Delfino , Abe Lards , Chris Loredo , Via Fearnley , Mary Anne Velayo , Voltaire Sean Andres , Christian Cunanan , Danny Archie Polino , BenNorm Baura , Bob Ocio and Don Dino Balbon
