Hi Naomi and Malcolm,

Thank you very much for such a wonderful experience last night! I like the how the environment is very welcoming. I don’t feel like being judged and everyone is free to express themselves. It's exciting to meet with so many people are passionate about making a better world.

Aha! moment:

key words: dignity, what can we learn from a small community?

The environment didn’t change. What have been changed is my perspectives.

Naomi taught me how to look from a positive side. I am always looking for more, what Naomi has taught me is that I can apply what I have learned and what I know of towards what my passion is.

Social media

What I didn't know is that homeless people also have cell phone and maybe we could do something from creating some apps that would encourage and help them to learn some skills or make some money.

Struggle to live and survive, live like an animal

it's also interesting to hear that some people think Canada is finally moving from developing country to developed country back in the 70's and people finally have a right to choose what they like and live for a higher standard of life instead of just making money for survival. I came to Canada in 2005 thinking that Canada is a developed county, compared to China. China still have lots of catch up with.

Mincome, pilot program

I am also interested in learning more about Acumen and looking for expertise in different field. I have always believed the power of teamwork and collaboration.

Hi Naomi and Malcolm,

I got so many inspirations but most important Aha! moment for me is the people there. There are eight of us bouncing the ideas, trying to come up with a practical and economical solutions that can be started with a local community. Isn't that the most exciting thing? Collaborations and connection between people.

Cheers,

Jamie
