Flashpoint auction to benefit The Tema Conter Memorial trust

Back in 2008, I posted about an up and coming TV show created by two talented Torontonians.

As their 5th and final season wraps up, they're having an auction of items donated by Flashpoint cast an crew.  If you loved the show and want to get your hands on a piece of the show's history, go on over to TV-eh?, where Diane has generously set up the auction for free.

Auction proceeds will benefit The Tema Conter Memorial trust.

Auction ends December 14th at 11:59:59 EST.
