Default Fraser Institute Seminar

The Fraser Institute comes to Alberta every year and puts on a free student seminar where they discuss public policy issues. They alternate every year between Calgary and Edmonton. I attended the Calgary seminar this morning.

Did anyone else from CP attend? If so, what did you guys think? This is my third seminar, and the second time I've heard Nadeem Esmail speak about what is wrong with our health care system. By far the best speaker.

Two years ago our luncheon speaker was Ezra Levant and he discussed the controversial issue of political cartoons. I know alot of left wing easteners don't give much respect to this right wing think tank, but I thoroughly enjoy these seminars. I also enjoy the discussion groups we have after each speaker. I'm amazed by the knowledge of these young students.
