Hi Wanda,
I suggest that you send it to any one of us but that you avoid posting something from a Political Action Group on this list.
That's the problem. This information was paid for by a political Action group and is very one-sided.
I am sure that there are some of us who would not have had any problem with a personal email from you.
Members of the NFB are not all one Political part, economic level, Religion and Education.
We do have one thing in common. That is our blindness.
I understand what you were trying to do, we just have to do it differently.
I know this is frustrating but there is a way to get the word out.
You could have posted an email saying that there is something important occurring which is of interest to all of us.
You could have said it was on Seespan.
You could have just left out your position and the Political Action Blurb.
You would have gotten people's interest and they could have checked it out.
Together with a personal email from you to those on your personal list this would have worked.
It would have taken some time on your part but believe me the word would have spread.
Have a good Board Meeting.
Colleen Roth
