John, I have seen lots of the incompetence you describe - both at work and at home (just ask me sometime about the "Community Care Access Center", now morphed into the "Local Health Integration Network").
It is a concern to me that this initiative will become an endless exercise in binder-filling & high sounding communiques with no real direction or support for us and other "boots on the ground" folks who just want to help.
But I am also concerned that GBARC will decide on paths to follow, maybe even buy some hardware, do training, etc., to provide what we think the EMOs need, in the manner we think it's needed - only to find out we're not consistent with whatever protocols have been agreed between the EMOs and the other NGOs.
I believe GBARC's best tactic is to get involved. I'm not sure they would want a flood of individual volunteers at this point, unless they are people with relevant skills & knowledge. On the other hand I'd think a minimal gesture like asking Jason Tremblay "how can we help?" would be entirely appropriate for GBARC.
