There are many ways in which visually impaired people are helped.  One of them is "Fondation Mira" which is here in Quebec.  This organization has been helping these people since October 21st 1981 when they presented there two first dogs.  This first step was a really nice start for these people who were happy of these new possibilities which will finally help people.  The mira fondation started with two categories of dogs which were the Labradors and Bouviers Bernois to finally have their own new race of dogs; labernois.  These specialized dogs help people and are educated through school to help these handicapped or visually impaired people.  Mira has gave over 2000 dogs and each dogs is worth about 30 000$ and has no government help.  Mira has many financial activities to auto-suffice.
