I agree, this is the best forum that I have come across as well.

We live in Halifax and I sympathize with your lack of resources. Our province does not have any gifted associations, nor are there any programs within the school board for gifted children. I have searched for a long time, but there are no local resources and I have yet to find any parents around here to chat with. We are flying blind with the help of a great psychologist and a very accomodating elementary school (only 180 students, which makes a difference.. DD's class has 19 students).

We were waiting for the psych ed. assessement to be done through our school board, but gave up after more than a year of waiting. We paid to have it done privately just this past spring. I wish I had great advice to offer you, but I am struggling here as well.
