SINCE THE "CITY With a Heart of Gold” is the home town of Cartt.ca editor and publisher Greg O’Brien, we figured we would act as hosts of a couple of hours of cocktails and food the night before the “Obligation to Serve” CRTC hearing getting under way next Tuesday in Timmins.
Channel Zero (owners of CHCH TV, Movieola and Silver Screen Classics) generously offered to help us co-host the cocktail party to be held at the Timmins Days Inn, from 7 to 9 pm Monday October 25th in Ballroom D.
Knowing the city as we do, finding something to do there on a cold Monday night in October can, well, prove a challenge. Plus, as we’ve reported, this is going to be a long, involved and important telecom proceeding (after three days in Timmins, it’s scheduled for five more in Gatineau), so we might as well relax a bit first. So a cocktail gathering seemed like a good idea.
Everything will be off the record for a couple of hours as there’s no agenda and no jacket required, (and we promise, no slides of the O’Brien family’s long ago days in Timmins).
Please join us there if you’re in town for that hearing.
