Thanks for the quick response!  I'm just planning out my day for tomorrow
and can get back to you in the morning with precise details, but probably
it would be a 10 minute chat via Zoom sometime in the morning.  I would
want to ask about general feelings about Bill 9, concerns about career
future and how this affects the daycare....

I'll be back in touch tomorrow morning....
