Sarah McLachlan is extraordinary. She is a Vancouver native, as am I, and in 2003 opened the Sarah McLachlan Music Outreach School (SMMO for short) to provide inner city kids with access to music, a lifeline for her. It was my pleasure to be part of the faculty as it kicked off. What a wonderful community she engendered.
