not eligible

Jason stumbled across a government grant program called the Canadian Interactive Fund. But the deadline was Jan 9. Crikey. We'd have to drop everything to meet the submission date.

Jason phoned me for some guidance. I thought the first thing to do was thoroughly review the requirements, found out how we can submit, when precisely the deadline was. I suggested we get other people involved, perhaps Denis and Tony, who had good experience with these things. Suggested Allard be looped in. Expressed my concern about the time frame and everyone's current load. But he was hot to trot. He booked a Skype meeting with me, Ralph, Dietmar, Charles, and Scott.

It was Allard who spotted it: this was a grant for cultural use.
