Welcome
All members are invited to attend the 2016 Annual General Meeting to be held on Wednesday, June 1 at the University of Calgary.
On behalf of the 2016 Programme Committee, I would like to invite you to join us at the University of Calgary. We have planned roundtables, workshops, panels and plenary sessions that showcase the many strengths of our discipline, across its diverse fields and traditions. We are once again holding a Graduate Student Three Minute Thesis competition and poster sessions. The Programme Committee has worked hard to make this an excellent conference that will provide important insights into political issues and valuable feedback on your research. I hope that you will be a part of it.
