[NFBWATlk] Canadian Federation if the Blind convention

[Bennett Prows]

Hi all,

For some reason I had a very difficult time trying to register. Got the combo box filled in about my being a NFB member, but nothing else came up or was found by me to put in my personal stuff, like name, address, ETC. I will likely join the zoom meetings even without the registration. I’ll try again later this afternoon and tomorrow.  All the best for the convention.

Thanks, Marci.  To use a very old turn of phrase, "The joint is jumping!"  Come join us, especially tomorrow.  Today is an exhibitor day, so feel free to drop in.  Right now we're discussing the Canada Disability registered plan; that has to do with a tax free savings account for people with disabilities.  It's interesting in that Canada is the only country that has done something like an IRA for people with disabilities.

After lunch we'll hear from the Canadian library system, quite different from NLS, but exciting in that public libraries provide service directly to blind people here.

We have attendees from Ireland and Kenya right now, so Washingtonians, you're most welcome!
