OTTAWA – Friends and colleagues of the late Alain Gourd (pictured) are invited to a charity fundraiser in his memory, scheduled for May 4, 2016 at The Rainbow Bistro blues bar in Ottawa's Byward Market.

Themed ‘Scotch & Save 2016’, this is the second bi-annual networking event and fundraiser for the Colorectal Cancer Association of Canada (CCAC) to honour Gourd’s memory.

Highlights of the evening will include special pricing on scotches and a raffle for bottles specially selected and donated by some of Canada's top communications law firms and companies, snacks, and a return musical performance by singer/songwriter Gerry Wall, familiar to many in the industry from his day job running Ottawa-based Wall Communications Inc.

For tickets or more information, please contact Jay Thomson at jay.thomson@cmpa.ca or (613) 688-0949.

The event will serve to kick off the 18th Biennial National Conference: New Developments in Communications Law and Policy, scheduled for May 5 – 6, 2016 at the Shaw Centre in Ottawa.
