Service Centre? How much will they need to spend on wages if we direct our=
users to the local Service Canada Office. Besides which, we have only 4 s=
ervice Centre's in the Central and North Island. The Comox Valley Centre I=
guess would support all those people on the North Island who will have to =
drive & ferry for up to 8 hours to get their forms filled out. We also hav=
e a few, fly-in or boat-in only communities. Their reality is bordering on=
ridiculous.
Our Youth Interns set this up outside our door as a conversation piece and =

Hi
My main concern are mobility issues for folks who live on reserve far away =
from any of the Service centres. Also agree with non-convenient hours.

Hi Bev,
At least we know its getting to them! I might suggest a good media talking =
point is that the Government has non-convenient hours of Mon-Fri 8:30 to 4:=
00.
Also we have updated the savecap.ca site. Trying to keep it fairly lean.

I see that they have updated the CAP site webpage:
http://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/cap-pac.nsf/eng/home
They also added:
If you have been using a CAP site to access government services, you may wi=
sh to find a Service Canada site near you. Service Canada offers access to =
a wide range of Government of Canada programs and services through its 600 =
plus points of service across the country.

Free computers will remain available to schools, libraries and not-for-prof=
it learning organizations through Industry Canada's Computers for Schools P=
rogram.
