Martin here. Didn't know I was on this list too, did you, Theresa? Unfortunately, I don't have those numbers. I'll send out the question on the Canadian Writing Centres Association list and let you know if I find out anything of use.

Cheers!
Martin

Thanks for the suggestion, Theresa.  I don't know about this so could you

Thanks!

Wendy,  I'm wondering if Martin Hollock has those numbers.  Are you 
familiar with his new initiative the CWCA?  I believe he has been 
compiling a list of Writing Centres and Services.  Theresa.
