Event Year: 2020

Over the past three years, CGA’s Roundtable program has been gaining momentum, and in 2020 we are pleased to introduce a

VIRTUAL DIMENSION!

In Fall 2020, we have rolled out a Webinar and Virtual Roundtable series extending the learning and networking opportunities beyond face-to-face CGA events.

Thursday Virtual Roundtables (TVR)

Time: 1pm EDT
Length: 2hr session
Format: Moderated Discussion

The Thursday Virtual Roundtables (TVR) are designed to build on the format of the in-person Roundtables which take place at the February Operations, Engineering, Integrity and Construction Conference. Each Roundtable will be led by a Chair and, complimenting the WWS sessions, will provide an opportunity for delving deeper into issues along each of the five overall streams. TVR participants will have an opportunity to provide discussion items/questions in advance of each session. The Chair will then lead an interactive discussion based on the submitted content as well as issues that come up during the live session.

Many organizations have seized the unprecedented opportunity presented by the COVID-19 lockdown, involving a moratorium on travel and significantly modified schedules, to advance various innovations. During this webinar companies will showcase a series of innovations they developed during these challenging months of lockdown.

On a personal level, many have taken up new or old hobbies with some of the new found COVID-19 time. What have you been up to? Cooking? Baking? Reading? Writing? Studying something new? We will kick off our “Who’s been INNOVATING during lockdown?” webinar with a 15 min opportunity to catch up with colleagues whom you haven’t seen in too long a time.

As Canadians continue to weather the disruptions brought about by COVID-19 and our responses to it, experts in a variety of fields are working to help us all return to a measure of normalcy. In this webinar we will hear from three of those experts. Two presentations will address efforts around information gathering about COVID-19 (one on exposure notification and a second on COVID-19 testing). The third will give a perspective on where we are and where we are going, including a look at immunity and antibodies. A Q&A session will follow the presentations.

The intent of this webinar is to provide a broad public audience with some useful information from government, private industry and the medical profession on the current situation in Canada with COVID-19.

Moderator:

Timothy M. Egan, President & CEO, Canadian Gas Association

Presenters:

• COVID-19 Exposure Notification: Lucie Vignola, Director General, COVID-19 Communications, Health Canada
•  COVID-19 Testing: Dr. Paul Lem, Founder and Chief Medical Officer, Spartan Bioscience Inc.
• Immunity and Antibodies: Dr. David Naylor, Co-Chair COVID-19 Immunity Task Force & Professor of Medicine and President Emeritus, University of Toronto
