Dear Editor:

In time for September come the flyers to take courses at various schools in the Greater Vancouver area: standup comedy, film, computers, acupuncture, etc. Yet no flyer ever comes through my mailbox offering courses teaching any of the Aboriginal languages in British Columbia being spoken for academic credit or general public interest.

There may be demand for courses of this nature being taught in Vancouver.

But none are. Why?

Yours truly,

Ben Griffin
