with our monthly segment called Get Together with Kim. Kim Kilpatrick
is a program co-ordinator of Get Together with Technology, which is a
wing of the Canadian Council of The Blind, CCB. Because this is
National White Cane Week, our topic of discussion is Cane Vs. Canine:
the advantages and disadvantages of a white cane and a guide dog.
