I don't know people in those organizations, but possibly others on canreef do. The case would be to increase awareness of their programs and facilities. For universities, this might attract young canreef members to enroll in courses and studies that they otherwise may not have been interested in. And for aquariums, would increase interest in exhibits and events which would increase attendance and revenues.
I know people within the Vancouver Aquarium and the non-profit Vancouver Aquatic Hobbyist Society (VAHS) fish club and can let them know to contact you, Titus.

Edit: Have sent off appropriate notification emails to have them contact you, Titus.

A person that grows there own coral and has there own web site to sell frags should be allowed to post a FS add on CanReef without being a sponser, period!! If we are all in this hobby together then the best way to keep it alive to buy from other hobbyists that have grown the coral and help let the oceans rebuild the reefs naturally.

I personally now of one person that has been banded because SOMEONE ratted him out for a website that had not been updated for over 3 yrs..........why.........simply because he was selling frags for a LOT less then the most. Stores/vendors that carry many many different items can make there profit in many ways to keep the lights on but this one particular person that I am referring to only sells frags to support there own tanks like I do in my other ventures that can not be named here.

Ok this might be just a rant but it bugs me so nough said.

Awesome Titus, I'm really excited to see what you have in store this year!

I think there should be some sort of "supporting vendor" option that is more affordable for home-based or smaller businesses. Besides Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver most of the stores are relatively small and the current sponsor fees are too high for the revenue generated.

As far as updating articles - I've been wanting to update some articles I've written, but it's not easy for me to do this. I have to harass Brad to edit it for me.

Putting it mildly!! Ya, know, if you were interested in regularly updating/doing articles, we might be able to work something out.

I could do like a once a month or once every 2nd month sort of thing. Subject requests would be a good idea...
