“What I think I do is co-opt power. I don’t think it goes the other way. I just assume they [politicians, etc.] want to do something good, and it’s appealing to them to be a part of something helpful. It’s just that they don’t normally know how to do it. They don’t see the opportunity.” - June Callwood, Globe and Mail, June 26, 2004, F8
