If you've ever attended an international conference, chances are you've noticed the high profile of our vibrant Canadian forum. But did you know about our woman on the international board of directors? This year Ann Medina of the Toronto Chapter begins her two-year term as Chair of the IWF Presidents' Council---a great honour for Canada as well as for Ann. We look forward to hearing more from Ann about her work in this prestigious position with colleagues from around the world---Jordan, South Africa, the U.S., Israel and Italy. Congratulations, Ann. You remind us all that we belong to a world-wide community.
