The 2011 CALL Conference will be in Vancouver - that quaint "village by the sea" that hosted the Olympics in 2010.  The organizing committee is already working to ensure that mountain adventures and ocean views are in store for all who attend.  The final dates in May or June will be fixed once the results of the recent survey are in.  Plan to be here!

Dear Labour Relations Professional:

It is our pleasure to invite you to join us on Monday, July 26, 2010, for the Association of Labor Relations Agencies' (ALRA) 2010 Advocates' Day at the Fairmont Château Laurier in Ottawa.

ALRA is an association of U.S. and Canadian state, provincial and federal labour relations boards, mediation agencies and labour departments. Advocates' Day is part of ALRA's annual conference. It is a unique one-day program which brings together labor officials, labor and management representatives, public and private sector managers and labor relations neutrals from across the United States and Canada to hear national and regional speakers discussing key issues of the day. This year, the sessions will focus on the labour relations consequences resulting from the current economic challenges.

The price for the all-day program, including a buffet breakfast, a plated lunch, and a cocktail reception at the majestic Grand Hall of the National Gallery of Canada, is $275.

A detailed agenda and registration information are attached. You may also register online by following the links on the ALRA website at: https://www.regonline.com/ALRA2010 .
