Great summary and glad you had an amazing time, Darren! If one were to try to go to this festival, how much would you recommend they save? Sounds like low 5 figures from the way you were talking.

No, medium four would do it. Accommodation is the biggest expense. And you can arrange to split it and get a “reasonable” rate if you book far enough in advance.

Darren thanks for putting this together. It gave me a “our man a Cann vibe” wich I appreciated. Second the coverage and material you were able to produce as a result of the trip are worth my subscription fees for sure so from every perspective, I would say it was definitely worthwhile trip! Some suggestions for your consideration: 1. Get us raising funding now for the next one. perhaps not for every Canns but I for one would pay toward you doing every second one for sure. 2. The highest subscription tears you could perhaps take suggestions on the at least one or two films that we would like to see reviewed by yourself. Keep up the good work Sir *tips hat*

Ha! In "the Rewind", we joke about setting an absurdly high fundraising goal of getting me, Jack and Marty to Toronto. And I'd be game for being pointed to a particular film or show. The only catch is I'd feel really guilty if somebody pointed me to something that they loved and I... <i>didn't</i>.
