And as in previous years, your participation does not involve you spending any money, just helping to inflate my ego a little bit.

The lots are familiar to those who have witnessed this stunt the past few years: Yves Boisvert, Serge Chapleau, Marie-Claude Lortie and others propose some activity related to their specialty.
