Erik:

If you can't find anyone near you, then try the dental clinic at Children's hospital. I've had very good experiences with the staff there – very patient and understanding. It is a fair jog for you, though.

I second that motion!

Yay, Barb!

I am an ASBC member. Let me know what I can do to help turn this formerly useless cow into a real asset for families like ours.

Hey Barb:

Something's better than nothing, don't you think? And I did say we should get ready for the next phase of the fight, didn't I?

Dave

[David Bridges]

Hooooray!

I'm so happy about this new turn of events, even though my son is too old to receive the benefit.

Good luck to all you parents with young ones!

Thank you Sabrina, Jean and others at FEAT, and let's hunker down for the next stage of the fight!

Sabrina and all:

I apologize for the strong words I used in my posts of last week. I am sorry if I offended any of my friends out there. I still believe that this should not be a forum for other issues, though, and I won't apologize for that.

[David Bridges]

My, my! Just look at all you vultures pouncing on someone with a different take on the issue! Take a valium, why don't you?

Take my comments, which so many of you found offensive, as a reminder that we're not all on the same bandwagon when it comes to other political issues. So, union sympathizers, left- (or right-)wingers, radicals and other miscreants – don't presume we're with you or that you speak for us. It's a heterogenous group.

I believe that landclaims settlements are not going to make it easier for governments to come up with money for our kids. I don't expect all of you to share that view. Too bad if you find it disturbing! Sometimes the truth hurts.

[David Bridges]

Well, it all comes out of the same pot folks!

So if you're gonna bring seemingly unrelated issues into the picture, be prepared for a retort.

Re: The Referendum

What the bloody hell has that got to do with our cause?

I for one see the billions of dollars about to be paid to Indians on top of the billions that are already wasted as just more money that could be spent on our truly deserving, disabled children.

So shut up!

Well, it seems like there IS some interest in a fundraising event. What's needed is someone or a group of people to take the reins and organize. I'm too busy to do that, but I could help out a lot. I can arrange a venue: they're usually pretty cheap, at least in vancouver. A liquor licence would help a lot: I know nothing about that.

Anyways, this thing could be done easily if people see a need and if someone steps forward to lead. Any takers? If we start planning now, a summer date could be done.
