a hand up, not a hand-out
ISF has been working hard during the last year to partner with the city of Montreal. We submitted a proposal to them which was accepted and now, after many back-and-forths, the project seems to have lost the attention of officials. More news here…

and from Michel Dumais.
This is all too bad, especially since Sherbrooke and Quebec’s groups are working so well with local institutions and municipal officials (and are making so quick progress).
ISF has shown clearly during the last 5 years that we are extremely effective and efficient, innovative and reliable as an organization. I hope that our dossier makes it back on track.

I’m curious… Who has the proposal now? Are politicians aware of that delay? Maybe the medias would like to know if ISF is compromise. Let me know.

I’m not the one handling the dossier at ISF and I only recently rejoined the board, so I’m one step away from the process, but I’m not sure if the politicians are yet aware of the delay. And we’re definitely trying to inform the media about the status of the project.
