New and exciting! Video conferencing


One never knows when a brand new experience presents itself and this is what happened in October 2018 when I appeared via video conferencing in front of the House of Commons Committee for Bill C81: the proposed Accessible Canada Act.

I have to admit that it was extremely anxious and nerve racking for me.  I was put into a room on my own and then I had to communicate with members of the standing committee who were grouped in Ottawa.  Here was the picture.

I was on my own in a room in downtown Toronto.
I was communicating with a group of committee members via video conferencing in Ottawa.
I had instructions to look into the camera whenever I spoke.
I, along with five others who were called witnesses, presented on that day.
We all answered questions from committee members.
The entire session was recorded and lasted for almost an hour!

Ah, yes!  Another new experience.
