The Trail Historical Society has just been notified by telephone of approval
for one student, for 13 weeks rather than 14. We actually received
notification that our application was rejected yesterday (32 out of 70). We
were in the process of drafting our angry letters this morning.
We wish luck to all.

We just received notification that our summer student position at the
Chilliwack Museum has been funded, albeit for a shorter work week. But we're
happy. So the phone calls are going out. Good luck to all.

Hello,
The Agassiz Harrison Museum received 0 funding for students this year
under the Canada Summer Jobs program. They have always received at least one
student for the past many, many years. Another letter is on its way to our
MP!

YOUNG CANADA WORKS
New Westminster Museum and Archives had received approval for a YCW -
Archives grant for 1 student as requested.
Today (May 22) I phoned to ask what the status was of our application
for 1 museum student that we had requested and was told we did not make the
cut. Later today we received a letter saying that YCW in Heritage
Organizations ". are currently unable to provide financial support for your
project. In the event that additional funding resources become available
for the YCW 2007 Program, we will be contacting your organization. ."
We did not apply for any other summer student programs this year.

Well I put in my twenty minutes: the 1-800 number gets you to someone
who has no idea what you are talking about. I was also referred to Susan
Murdoch who was in a meeting and then to Kent O'Connor who was pleasantly
patronizing, and kept saying that the $5 million that is supposed to help
museums is not to compensate for the HRDC cuts (I'm sure someone said that
the $5 million was specifically to compensate for the HRDC cuts) but is just
to help us out, but they have not decided when, and it will be going through
the YCW program at CMA.
As for HRDC, the Minister of Veteran's Affairs (no idea why him)
announced last week that all the organizations across the country that have
been cut will be funded. Odd that no one has followed up on that with an
announcement. I think the government is falling apart.

Thanks for your suggestion regarding phoning Minister Oda and the PM,
Lee Boyko. I tried phoning on Victoria Day when I wasn't working myself.
Neither number you gave will afford an opportunity to leave a message
after hours unless a 'mailbox number' is supplied.
I had none.
This morning, at 11am Ottawa time, I tried Minister Oda's phone number.
I was redirected to a gentleman who redirected me to Lyn Elliot Sherwood
(819 997 7774) who is, apparently "in charge of museums", and thence, as she
was not in her office, to Susan Murdoch (997 8756) who was not in her office
either and whose answering machine clicked off as I started to speak. The
process took twenty minutes.
There is a toll free number: 1 800 720 0994. Ask for the local 819 or
ask to speak to Lyn (Elliot) Sherwood... My receptionist found her name
listed under Sherwood, not Elliot.
I hope you all have better luck than I did.

Hi Everyone,
I would like to encourage all of you to pick up your phones and call
the following two numbers:
(613) 992-2792 This is Minister Oda's phone number
(613) 992-4211 This is Prime Minister Harpers number
Call them, even if after hours and leave a message.
Simply ask them what is happening with the announced summer student
funding for museums? Many museum that have traditionally been supported by
the exisiting summer student programs have heard in the past few days that
they are getting nothing this year.
Add your personal stories.
Cheers
Lee Boyko
