Please Help Oni - Here's Why / How!

from an email I received, forwarded by rob mclennan:

On December 20th Ottawa poet "Oni the Haitian Sensation" was in a serious car accident involving a commercial snow clearing vehicule in the City of Ottawa. Oni and her three young children were hit from behind and the car was damaged beyond repair. The police officer dealing with Oni's case told her that the driver of the snow clearing vehicule was under investigation and will be charged. All occupants suffered from whiplash, Oni suffered a concussion, and continues to suffer from chronic pain.

Oni is an internationally recognized artist who has given much to Ottawa. She tells us that she and her children are in need of help from the community, and can be contacted at (780) 247-9285.
