| It doesn't matter if they end up switching wholesale to Ubuntu Linux, adopt
| AbiWord as the Provincial word processor, or even just make the move to use
| Firefox on all desktops. The Goal is to raise awareness. The Goal is to get
| our foot in the door. Once it’s in, we can do more.
|
| Show them the power of Open Source. Show them the power of a community
| working together. Show them how to think differently.
|
| Show them how to make a Free Ontario.

| necessary gains in productivity.” That day, I came to understand the many
| needs that are fulfilled by free software and how it is of crucial importance
| to our country’s economy.
