b'Given that at the time of writing this article we are in the midst of summer months, with vacations, busier work schedules, etcetera, I have not had the same opportunities to interact with all of you, particularly in person. Nonetheless, I hope that while enjoying this time of year, you all have in your minds our upcoming Annual ConferenceinNashville, Tennessee,andourAnnualGeneral Meeting in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Building on the success and popularity of these events from last year, ECAO is working hard For the first time that anyone can recall.our industry witnessed ECAO/the IBEW/CCO, the Ontario Electrical League (OEL) and Christian Labour Associationof Canada (CLAC) come together to author a report/set of recommendations to our provincial government and appear together before the Minister of Training, Colleges, and Universities to present in person!to make each of these events even better this year. However, to do so, we need your participation. Spots for the Conference are down to only a few. And we are also limiting the attendance for the Great Gatsby event at the combined JEPP/ECAO AGMs. As a result, I urge you to register quickly, if you havent already. A big thank-you goes to our members, Affiliate Partners, Industry Partners and staff for all of the work undertaken to make certain these events are successful.I hope your summer was/is fabulous, and I look forward to seeing you at our upcoming ECAO events.Wherever you are, youre never that far fromour experienced team of construction, engineeringand infrastructure law professionals.Law around the worldnortonrosefulbright.comDan J.
