				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Management Changes</h2>
<p>On July 19, Rebeccah Redden took on day-to-day coordination and planning for this event. Support is greatly needed in both east and west routes to help us get to Ottawa. New <a title="Relay Schedule / Horaire du relais" href="http://katimacan.com/schedule/">simplified route</a> has been planned and schedule will be revised soon.</p>
<h2>In the West</h2>
<p>The package is in Burnaby safe and sound. It will be in Fort Langley either today or tomorrow. Found someone to take it for us to Hope and from there I am not sure. Anyone willing to help get it to Canmore please <a title="Register / Vous inscrire" href="http://katimacan.com/register/">register</a>.</p>
<h2>In the East</h2>
<p>The shirt missed the connection to go to the Halifax Rally on Friday so we are currently in Charlottetown. Planning the next steps to get to Halifax.  Again, assistance is requested.</p>
<p>Questions or suggestions please contact us: <a href="mailto:KatimaCAN@gmail.com">KatimaCAN@gmail.com</a></p>

<address> <em>(<a title="COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE" href="http://katimacan.com/2012/07/09/communique-de-presse/">Le français est ici.</a>)</em></address>
<p><strong>Toronto, July 9, 2012</strong> – This summer a unique event in Canadian history hopes to capture the imagination of the country and bring awareness and support to reverse the termination of federal government funding for the Katimavik program. <em>Crossing Canada for Katimavik</em> is a national relay to carry a package containing a green Katimavik T-Shirt, a Journal, a Map of Canada and petition sheets to Ottawa.  Two groups of volunteers, called Voyageurs, will commence inIqaluit, Nunavut with one branch heading east to Goose Bay Labrador and the other heading west to Whitehorse Yukon.  The Voyageurs will make their way back to Ottawa through a total of 50 Katimavik host communities crossing Canada by foot, bicycle, boat, car, plane and any other means available to them.  As each Voyageur passes the package on to the next they will engage Canadians to sign the petition and write in the journal about the terrible loss of Katimavik.  Each voyageur will also sign the shirt to show their contribution to the successful outcome of this event.  In Ottawa the two shirts and journals will be offered to Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Honourable James Moore, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages who will become honorary Katimavik alumni upon acceptance.</p>
<p>Katimavik is a 35 year old national institution through which 30,000 young adults provided full time volunteer service to their country while learning about Canada and themselves. 50 communities and over 500 not for-for-profit organizations in every province and territory of the land annually receive 600,000 hours of work. This program benefits ALL Canadians.  The 2012 Federal budget terminated all funding for Katimavik. This funding cut resulted in cancelling plans for 600 youth to provide service to their country and leaving hundreds of not-for-profits without valuable volunteers for the remainder of 2012.</p>
<p>We welcome all Canadians of all political affiliations and regions to participate in this non-partisan event to support the ideals of Katimavik of working as a team for the betterment of ourselves, our community and our country.  Help us cross the country by registering at <a href="http://katimacan.com/register/">http://katimacan.com/register/</a>!</p>
<p>We also reach out to all communities and not-for-profit partners across the country to welcome and support this initiative. Within each community we want to encourage dialog between the residing MP and organizations in the community who have been affected by this cut.</p>
<p>The Saving Katimavik Alumni Committee is an informal association of Katimavik Alumni and supporters. They are not associated with Katimavik-OPCAN Corporation.</p>

<address><a title="PRESS RELEASE" href="http://katimacan.com/2012/07/09/press-release/">(English is here.)</a></address>
<p><strong>Toronto, le 9 juillet 2012</strong> – Cet été, un événement unique dans l’histoire du Canada tentera de capturer l’imaginaire du pays, afin de conscientiser ses citoyens et d’obtenir leur soutien dans le but de renverser la décision du gouvernement fédéral d’abolir le financement de ce qui constituait jusqu’à récemment le plus important programme de service volontaire pour la jeunesse au pays, Katimavik. <em>La Traversée du Canada pour Katimavik</em> est un relais national vous transportera d’un océan à l’autre, avec comme objectif final de traverser le pays afin de livrer un paquet contenant deux t-shirts Katimavik, un journal, une carte du Canada et une pétition jusqu’à Ottawa.</p>
<p>Deux groupes de volontaires, appelés les Voyageurs, débuteront leur périple à Iqaluit, Nunavut. Le premier groupe se dirigera vers Goose Bay, Labrador, alors que le deuxième groupe partira vers l’ouest en direction de Whitehorse, Yukon. Une fois leurs premiers buts atteints, les Voyageurs reviendront alors vers Ottawa, en passant par plus de 50 communautés qui ont accueilli récemment des projets Katimavik. Les Voyageurs effectueront ce périple à pied, à vélo, en bateau, en voiture, en avion, et par tout moyen de transport qui leur sera disponible.</p>
<p>Le paquet sera transmis d’un Voyageur à l’autre, comme dans une course à relais. Chacun des Voyageurs profitera de son périple pour informer les Canadiens sur la situation de Katimavik et les encouragera à signer la pétition qui demande au gouvernement la continuité du financement du programme. Ils écriront aussi leur témoignage et celui de tous les gens dont ils feront la rencontre  dans le journal prévu à cet effet. Finalement, chaque Voyageur apposera sa signature sur un des t-shirts Katimavik afin de marquer sa participation à l’événement. Une fois à Ottawa, les t-shirts et le journal seront offerts au Premier ministre du Canada, le Très Honorable Stephen Harper et au ministre du Patrimoine canadien et des Langues officielles, l’Honorable James Moore. Ces derniers deviendront des membres honoraires de l’Association des anciens de Katimavik s’ils acceptent de recevoir les Voyageurs.</p>
<p>Katimavik est une institution nationale qui devait célébrer cette année 35 années d’existence et par qui plus de 30 000 jeunes adultes ont eu l’opportunité d’effectuer du travail volontaire à temps plein au service de leur pays, tout en apprenant davantage sur le Canada et sur eux-mêmes. Grâce à Katimavik, 50 communautés et plus de 500 organismes à but non lucratif situés dans toutes les provinces et les territoires du pays bénéficient annuellement de plus de 600 000 heures de travail volontaire. Alors que ce programme profite à TOUS les Canadiens, fait la promotion de valeurs fondamentales à notre société et crée des citoyens plus employables, plus engagés et conscients des réalités de leur pays, l’intégralité de son financement a été aboli lors du dévoilement du budget fédéral de 2012. La coupure de son financement, qui s’est effectuée sans préavis et avant le terme de l’entente de financement qui avait été signée avec le gouvernement, a ainsi laissé en plan plus de 600 jeunes qui avaient déjà été sélectionnés pour les programmes devant débuter en juillet, et autant d’organismes à but non lucratif qui comptaient sur le travail de ses jeunes volontaires dans les mois à venir.</p>
<p>Nous invitons donc les Canadiens de toutes affiliations politiques et provenances à prendre part à cet événement non partisan et à soutenir les idéaux et valeurs de Katimavik : travailler ensemble afin de contribuer non seulement à son développement en tant qu’individu, mais aussi au développement de sa communauté et de son pays. Aidez-nous à traverser le pays en vous inscrivant à <a href="http://katimacan.com/register/">http://katimacan.com/register/</a>!</p>
<p>Nous lançons aussi un appel aux anciennes communautés d’accueil et partenaires communautaires de Katimavik afin qu’ils soutiennent cette initiative. Dans chaque communauté visitée, nous désirons encourager le dialogue entre le député fédéral de la circonscription concernée et les organismes communautaires qui ont été affectés par cette coupure.</p>
<p>Le Comité d’anciens Sauvons Katimavik qui coordonne cet événement est une association informelle d’anciens de Katimavik et de supporters du programme. À noter que ce comité n’est pas associé avec la Corporation Katimavik-OPCAN.</p>

<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">A kiss has so many meanings. It can represent affection, affiliation or <em>the kiss of death</em>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">Another aspect that can be the kiss of death is complexity.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">Many people have indicated support for <strong>Crossing Canada for Katimavik</strong> but the overly complex registration structure made it difficult for them to know what to do and how to do it. Therefore we need to assess; adapt and change.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">We have introduced the KISS element <em>(which unfortunately does not translate well to French)</em>:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:20px;line-height:30px;">K</span><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">eep </span><span style="font-size:20px;line-height:30px;">I</span><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">t </span><span style="font-size:20px;line-height:30px;">S</span><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">imple and </span><span style="font-size:20px;line-height:30px;">S</span><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">traight</span></p>

On our <a title="Register / vous inscrire" href="http://katimacan.com/register/">new registration form</a> you input your contact information and select the portion of the route for which you are will be responsible for.  The more people who sign up for a route, the more options are available on how that route is going to take place. By selecting a route you agree ensure it will occur.  Please see our Terms of Participation for more information.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">Unfortunately, this new structure means that everyone who has already signed up will have to do so again as we have changed the rules and structure. We are sorry for the inconvenience but as Katimavik alumni and supporters I  am sure you understand the need to adapt and change.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">Un baiser a une signification tant d&#8217;années. Il peut représenter l&#8217;affection, l&#8217;affiliation ou <em>le baiser de la mort</em>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">Un autre aspect qui peut être le baiser de la mort est la complexité.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">Beaucoup de gens ont exprimé leur soutien pour <strong>La Traversée du Canada pour Katimavik</strong>, mais la structure d&#8217;enregistrement trop complexe, il est difficile pour eux de savoir quoi faire et comment le faire.

<p><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:20px;">Nous avons introduit l&#8217;élément KISS (qui malheureusement n&#8217;est pas bien traduire vers le français):</span></p>

<p>Both are small northern communities in remote locations: Iqaluit with 6200 residents and Goose Bay with a population of 9,000. Both have a diverse mix of cultures and visitors from all over Canada. Both are the respective hubs of transportation for their regions with significant airports and people coming and going all the time.</p>
<p>And these were both towns that hosted Katimavik groups who worked for the betterment of the community. <em>This is why we are in one, trying to get to the other.</em></p>
<p>However, the distance of 1233 Kilometers between these two towns is presenting a challenge for<em> <strong>Crossing Canada for Katimavik</strong></em>. Despite the fact they both share many similarities, and likely have people travelling in and out every day, we are unable to find someone to carry a small package containing the symbol of our event:<span style="color:#008000;"><strong> A green Katimavik T-Shirt</strong></span>.</p>
<div id="attachment_341" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-341" title="Happy Valley Goose Bay Labrador" src="http://katimacan.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/800px-5_wing_goose_bay.jpg?w=300&#038;h=199" alt="Happy Valley Goose Bay Labrador" width="300" height="199" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Happy Valley Goose Bay Labrador</p></div>
<p><strong>What is a historic, national event supposed to do?</strong></p>
<p>The rule for the event says the relay cannot be achieved by Canada Post <em>(which sorta defeats the whole purpose of having a relay of Katimavik supporters)</em>. Therefore, on this Canada Day 2012 we turn you  to show that Canadians care about Katimavik.</p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>We are seeking anyone who is travelling out of Iqaluit within the next week or two who happens be going East.  Even Halifax helps as it is the gateway to Labrador.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#800000;">Please contact us at <a href="mailto:KatimaCAN@gmail.com"><span style="color:#800000;">KatimaCAN@gmail.com</span></a> if can be a hero and help get this relay in the air!</span></strong></p>

<p><em>La version française suivra&#8230;</em></p>
<p>Crossing Canada for Katimavik is national relay that will start on <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Canada Day 2012</span></strong> and end in Ottawa on September 18, 2012.</p>
<p>The relay will carry two Katimavik t-shirts, a journal and map from Iqualuit, Nunavut to the east and west coasts of Canada and then back to Ottawa, visiting as many Katimavik host communities as possible. The shirts may be transported by any means available and everyone who helps will sign the shirt. Our main goal is to lobby the Government of Canada to restore funding for Katimavik but we also aim to enhance the stature of Katimavik in communities across Canada. This campaign is open to ALL Canadians who see the value of Katimavik.</p>
<p>This is national event to support the<em> Summer of Katimavik</em>.</p>
<p>Thank you and I hope you will join us.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>La Traversée du Canada pour Katimavik est le relais national qui va commencer <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">la fête du Canada 2012</span></strong> et la fin à Ottawa le 18 Septembre 2012.</p>
<p>Le relais transporter deux Katimavik t-shirts, un journal et la carte d&#8217;Iqualuit, au Nunavut à l&#8217;est et la côte ouest du Canada, puis de retour à Ottawa, en visitant le plus grand nombre des communautés d&#8217;accueil de Katimavik que possible. Les t-shirts peuvent être transportés par tous les moyens et tous ceux qui aident signera la chemise. Notre objectif principal est de faire pression sur le gouvernement du Canada de rétablir le financement du programme Katimavik, mais nous visons également à renforcer la stature de Katimavik dans les communautés partout au Canada. Cette campagne est ouverte à tous les Canadiens qui voient la valeur de Katimavik.</p>
<p>C&#8217;est événement national pour soutenir <em>l&#8217;été de Katimavik</em>.</p>
<p>Je vous remercie et j&#8217;espère que vous vous joindrez à nous.</p>
