Comments from our guests and members
Members and guests attending our weekly meetings are very important to us. Based on your comments we are able to produce many more educational, inspiring and entertaining weekly meetings.
Following are some of the comments we have received. Would you please send us your comments?
Thanks for the TED talk and video on polio. I have met people who survived the polio outbreak in Canada in the 50's and after reading recently about the numbers of children in Canada whose parents opt not to have their child vaccinated.
I think the WHO two-minute video about polio should be aired on TV as a public service.

It was good to have the message of the Polio Plus campaign reinforced, knowing the finish line is within reach. The constant reminder is important in keeping that goal top of mind.
Also, particularly enjoyed the feature on Holly Mititquq Nordlum, regarding the history and significance of Inuit tattoos. Understanding and respecting other cultures is truly ikmportnt if we are to assist them in a meaningful way.
-- Don Smith, RC of Bracebridge, Ontario, D-7010
Attended the meeting together with my wifey from our terras in Manzanillo. Life is tough.
