Canadian legislative researchers! The Bell Chair in Canadian Parliamentary Democracy is holding an online workshop Friday October 15. Open by invitation to academics at all career stages studying Canadian legislatures. Email [email protected] for more info.
Academic friends, given what we know right now about vaccination schedules, how likely would you be to register for an in-person conference in Banff in mid-September?
If Alberta politics puzzles (or intrigues) you, join us for the final @PrairiePSA Presents Panel of the Year: Alberta Politics WTF? Noon Mountain time. Free. All welcome. Register here: https://t.co/dKsjefjopJ
Professor Joe Garcea was a champion of prairie political science research. His expertise on Saskatchewan politics and public policy benefited Canadian political science and Canada as a whole. Our condolences to Dr. Garcea's family and his @usaskPolitics colleagues and students.
It is with a heavy heart that we say good bye to Professor Joe Garcea. A better colleague and friend we could not hope for. He will be terribly missed and always remembered.
Does #ableg have you scratching your head?

Attending a panel recapping Saskatchewan election. Hosted by @JSGSPP & @PrairiePSA Panelists include @loleen_berdahl and former NDP MLA Danielle Chartier and former Sask Party MLA/Cabinet Minister Kevin Docherty.
If you're an academic leader, and you're not starting all your meetings by asking your people how they're doing and thanking them for all the extra work, you're doing it all wrong.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
