Response from Spring Conference Chair: There is actually a speaker that is Canadian but has not lived here for many many years- she is also from Ottawa and her niece is also a member here in Ottawa. We have been given the opportunity, because it is virtual- to get speakers from other places that would normally cost a great deal of money. There is participation for Ottawa and others- during the sharing portion of the meeting- where participants can actually share for a few minutes after that speaker gives their 30 minute talk on their assigned step. This is not something that we have been able to do in person at the conference. I know the committee and the Intergroup chair and vice-chair support us are excited. I hope that helps to clarify. Take care,
Cindy
Hi,
Are the spots limited? Thanks
Hi Kaitlyne, The attendance max (at one time) is 500.
We will be raising the capacity to allow as many people as possible. (1000) No registration required.

After perusing the schedule for the event it is evident that it was decided that no one from Ottawa be allowed to participate. Why is that?
