Letters of Endorsement

"Thanks for the help you gave me last Wednesday. I thought my Garmin wasn’t capable of working in UTM’s, but you quickly showed me that it most definitely can. We had a blast at our fish camp – we were able to read the topo and load coordinates for a lake that we wanted to fish and it worked!  I sincerely appreciate the time and courtesy you afforded me".

GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (referenced from the House of Commons in Hansard)

Mr. Anthony Rota (Nipissing-Temiskaming, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, a new instructional manual and DVD developed in my riding wiII help solve the learning dilemma for many global positioning system users.

A book entitled, What Do Those Numbers Mean Anyway?, written by BiII Steer, has recently been published by the Canadian Ecology Centre Foundation. The visual and written content explains the relationship between the map, the compass and the GPS unit.

According to Ken WaIIer, a professor at Nipissing University in North Bay, there is a real need to have consumers and those working in rural situations properly trained to understand these basics.

This book wiII serve to educate paramedics, police and fire personnel, educational and outdoor leaders, as weII as those working for utility companies, so the GPS technology can be used efficiency and enhance overaII safety.

On behalf of the people of Nipissing-Temiskaming and all hon. members, I wish to congratulate BiII Steer on his exceIIent work, and would encourage anyone who spends time in the outdoors to buy a copy of What Do Those Numbers Mean Anyway?
