Virtual meet ups happen on a quarterly (ish) basis on Saturdays or Sundays for up to 1.5 hours. The format typically looks like:
- Welcome/ introductions/ land acknowledgment
- A learning session/presentation
- Question and answer following the presentation
- What’s coming up next from OT-CAN
When the group is small we often ask participants to introduce themselves and do their own land acknowledgement. While we encourage talking and getting to know each other, you always have the choice to use the chat or opt out.
We welcome participants from across Canada and the world!
Registration for meet ups happens through event bright
