[NFBWATlk] Canadian Federation if the Blind convention

[Mary Ellen]

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!
