On Wednesday, October 17, Dr. Stephen Tapp, Deputy-Chief Economist with Export Development Canada, spoke to an appreciative audience on the topic of "Trade Policy in the Trump Era" - a daunting task, indeed!
Dr. Tapp was certainly up to the task, however, giving a clear and insightful analysis of Canada's economic strengths and challenges. He was an excellent speaker and was able to translate complex economic data into terms a layperson could understand. He also brought clarity and reassurance to the Later Life Learning audience.
Thank you, Dr. Tapp!
Join us next week for the fifth and final speaker in the current series. Professor David Lyon will wrap up the series by discussing "Surveillance, Security, and Democracy." Dr. Lyon is Director of the Surveillance Project at Queen's University. Another very topical lecture! It will be good to welcome Dr. Lyon back to Later Life Learning Belleville.
The lecture will be held on Wednesday, October 24, at St. Thomas' Anglican Church, 201 Church Street, Belleville, 10 am to 12 noon. Single tickets ($15) will be available at the door. Those who have pre-ordered lunch will gather at Dinkel's Restaurant, 44 Bridge Street East, Belleville, following the lecture.
