Calling all Canadians

Cdn RISE UP MY CANADIAN BROTHERS & SISTERS!!!

Ok, I'm so sick of people not recognizing Canada as a global technology leader.  But honestly, it may be our own fault. 

In a recent podcast interview , Canadian Entrepreneurial Evangelist and bestselling author, Len Brody attributes this issue to our collective mindset of humility.  But as Len says in the interview there is a big difference between confidence, bravado and bragging.

Further, in the my travels to Silicon Valley this year, I have been blessed to met lots ex pats living south of the border who despite being proudly Canadian don't raise there voices in support of our great nation, mostly because they haven't been asked to...at least up until now!

So I'm calling all all members of the Canadian Technology community (VCs, Start-ups, bloggers, NFPs and entrepreneurs) to rise up and join together in celebrating technology and innovation in the Great White North. 

To assist with this, I've joined with Reg Cheramy in creating a webring for what we have dubbed the CANADIAN TECH MOB. Please join us by registering your websites and blogs on http://www.canadiantechmob.com/and adding in the logo below (and the code) to these sites.  Together let's represent our home: true, strong and free!

Long live Canada! Long live the Canadian Tech Mob!!!
