Tom, good job running the VHF net. 

Lots of good discussion re ARES & public service.  I heard several comments to the effect that people wouldn't know how to help in an emergency.  Since we may have more time on our hands now with isolation, etc., here are two knowledge improvement activities anyone can do at home, for free:

#1: Do the RAC Certified Emergency Coordinator online course.    It basically involves reading the material, answering the test questions and emailing the test to the RAC Community Services Officer.  I did it on vacation a couple of years ago.  It took a half dozen evenings. You get a certificate and a nice little red metal badge.

#2 Do the Emergency Management Ontario IMS-100 Introduction to Incident Management System online course.  It follows basically the same pattern: read material, answer questions.  I started it a while ago but had to temporarily set it aside.  I plan to finish it now.

Unfortunately the propagation gods frowned on me again and I could not join the HF net.  I heard Tom but could only catch a word here & there. Lots of clear, loud signals across North America, but not locally.  Maybe I need a NVIS antenna :-)
