I'm sorry I missed this one. I know Pat from his days in Ottawa although I've
never met his wife. You bring up a lot of points that other people are
addressing. The need for indigenous peoples all over the globe to share
ideas and experiences and reach out and support each other. Just getting
news and differing viewpoints about events overlooked or ignored by the
mainstream media and get another side of the story.

I hear Buffy Ste. Marie is working hard to get Aboriginal school kids across
Canada and the U.S *wired*. Groups like the Native News Network in London,
Ontario, are doing similar things with us older kids. Thanks to these
networks, I've gotten back in touch with people I met in the South Pacific
and South Africa. Not too shabby for a poor Mohawk kid stuck in Toronto with
a slow modem and broken down Mac. If an old dog like me can do it, so can
those kids. So can Pat and the people back on Tobique (nice place, been
there a few times).

Keep up the good work. I hope to hear from some of them soon. Say hello to
Pat for me.
