I enjoyed reading the online article in the Profile
section of The Ambassadors Magazine recognizing the achievements of
Aboriginal women and am humbled to see my profile listed as one of the six
women. I just have one small request if possible. My picture is pasted
next to Naomi's and I am hoping that this could be corrected to be beside
my profile for accuracy. Other than this small error, I am very
grateful to be recognized in such a nice way. Merci Tcho
