The event is supported by the University of New Brunswick’s Department of Sociology, St. Thomas University’s Department of Sociology, the Conservation Council of New Brunswick, Stop Spraying NB, and the Council of Canadians Fredericton Chapter. The talk will occur at 7:00pm at Kinsella Auditorium, McCain Hall, St. Thomas University in Fredericton.

His news stories have appeared in The Globe and Mail, Report on Business Magazine, National Post, Toronto Star, The Gazette, The Walrus, Canadian Business, Canadian Lawyer and The Financial Post. Livesey has also worked in the investigative unit of CBC TV’s The National, the fifth estate and CBC News Sunday. Livesey is the author of Thieves of Bay Street: how Banks, Brokerages and the Wealthy Steal Billions from Canadians.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The NB Media Co-op chose to be a co-operative because we believed that it would provide a democratic model for producing, disseminating and sustaining media.

The Annual General Meeting is a time for our members to review the milestones and challenges of the past year and discuss the future of the NB Media Co-op. We will elect board of directors and editorial board at this meeting. Find our agenda, documents to review before the AGM and call for nominations below.

Everyone is welcome to our annual meeting but you must be a member to vote! Not a member yet? Annual memberships are $30. Join via PayPal or send a cheque to NB Media Co-op at 180 Saint John St., Fredericton, NB E3B 4A9. We need your membership to sustain our work.
