Courageous Youth Share Experiences

The "Butt Spelling" group numbers were up considerably from yesterday, which was great to see. The "safe zones" for personal belongings are still the Production room, the Report room and the dorm rooms. Jeff and Marie are continuing to do wonderful job as MCs. We also had guests this morning; two Exchanges Canada staff were here to observe the plenary session which was wonderful to see. Exchanges Canada provided us with a travel budget for all the staff and the delegates for the next four years of conferences! Thank you!

The focus of this morning's discussion was on relationships and we had 5 wonderful panelists. Shauna, Ryan, Michelle, Isabelle and John all shared their experiences with relationships with us. The panelists all captivated our attention with their touching stories and comic witicisms. The panelists talked about relationships with family and good friends. This plenary gave the teams a chance to talk about different types of relationships in their lives and what they mean to them as individuals.

The research team (Michael Belanger, Kayla Krasnor, and Rachel Abbs) presented the statistics from the Values Auction, which took place yesterday.

Who says youth don't care about anyone other than themselves; according to the values auction we value equality, world peace, and cures for lethal diseases over great sex and other material items!
