 DD> Does NFB have chapters in Canada?  Any close to Hamilton,

 DD> chapter?
 
 
We don't have a group as such in Canada.  We are a U.S. organization.  We do 
have two former members, Paul and Maryellen Gabias who live in Colona 
Brittish Columbia, who have started an organization.  I can't remember its 
exact name, and I left the number at work.  I will post it next Monday, when 
I return there.
 
both Maryellen and Paul are well steeped in NFb philosophy and tradition.  
 
We had 60 something canadians at our national convention in California this 
year.
