The Future of Work at The Canadian Tulip Festival

April 21st, 2010

On May 18, in Ottawa,  please join me for an entertaining  discussion on the future of work at Ottawa’s new Celebridee (also called the Festival of Ideas), part of the  Canadian Tulip Festival.  The festival is one of the biggest annual tourist attractions in Canada.

WORKPLACE STABILITY IN AN UNSTABLE WORLD will be a 90-minute exploration on the employment challenges facing the Canadian economy between myself, Katherine Giroux-Bougard, (head of the Canadian Federation of Students),  Mel Svendsen (President of Standen’s  Manufacturing  in Calgary) and Buzz Hargrove  (former head of the Canadian Auto Workers).  Mary Lou Finlay,  one of Canada’s most prominent journalists , will  be the moderator.   The event takes place inside the Mirror Tent, a truly amazing example of portable architecture  from Belgium, set up in Major’s Hill Park behind the Chateau Laurier Hotel in downtown Ottawa.  Tickets now available.
