4. Last reminder for the ESA journal!

Hi all,

Okay, so I'll make this quick. Point 1 is the major event I've been talking about in my past listervs that the ESA has organised. (I've included a picture so I hope the McGill email system manages to send it!) 2, 3 and 4 are pretty self-explanatory.

1. ESA First Annual Speaker Series Presents: David Dodge

Helloooo all Econ folks! It's time to get excited as your Economics Students' Association presents to you their First Annual Speaker Series. This initiative aims to bring in influential people to come and speak to you about the most relevant current issues.

This year, we... present the former governor of the Bank of Canada, David Dodge, who will be speaking about Canadian Fiscal Policy:

"Canada's Economic Hurdles: Why Worry About Europe When We've Got our Own Troubles?"

The event is happening at Hotel OMNI at 1050 Sherbrooke Street (right opposite McGill) from 4 to 7 p.m. on Tuesday the 28th of February. This is a great opportunity for you to come out, and hear what top person in the field has to say about where Canada stands in today's economy. Another reason for you to come? The event will be followed by a cocktail and ticket price of $5 covers entrance to the event and one drink.

You can get your tickets here:

LEACOCK:
Monday 6, February 10-6PM
Monday 13, February 10-6PM
Wednesday 15, February 10-6PM

BRONFMAN:
Tuesday 7, February 10-6Pm

Or contact the ESA at esamcgill@gmail.com

Our office is located at LEA 114A.

2. ESA clothing sale

You've all been asking for one so this is just to let you know that there will be one! This will be the last one of the year, so make sure you buy your economics clothing now. The details will be in the next listserv (ah, the suspense!).
