To: Participants registered to the December 5 Workshop of the Canadian Partnership for Public Policy-Oriented Consumer Interest Research (PPOCIR)
You will find below links to documents that form the participants’ package (see bottom of this page) – hard copies will not be distributed at the Workshop, so we encourage you to either download or print copies before attending the workshop.
Important notice: Ryerson University will be providing live streaming of the presentations. This implies that a camera will be in the room to film the event for live streaming on the Internet. The link to access the December 5 live streaming (https://ryecast.ryerson.ca/12/live/1081.aspx) will be communicated to targeted audiences:
• The Partnership members, some of whom are unable to travel to Toronto and have asked for this type of access;
• Academic members who have self-identified as working on PPOCIR, under Dr. Kernaghan Webb’s initiative to create an academic research group.
It is possible that these members would share the link with interested colleagues, but the streaming of the presentations will only be available live, during the time of the event. Recordings from the streaming will only be used by the workshop organizers for the purposes of preparing the Workshop report.
