Hello all,

I have had a great deal of interest in this survey.  The results will be
published in the May/June issue of Paediatrics and Public Health, the
Journal of the CPS.  They will also be posted on their web site at about the
same time (www.cps.ca).   I will post a reminder message here when the
results are available.
