I will not be able to devote time to help you, but I would like to see you
organizing the event in Canada as you told us earlier, and I confirm I would
come to this event in person, on my own expenses if needed.
I hope you can find a sponsor for this and I believe that with a better Internet
coverage the sponsor would not regret spending his money in the event.
