Meeting will start at 7:00 PM sharp, starting off with a 5 minute welcome and introduction - followed by our guest speaker Steve Leitch (http://ca.linkedin.co..., one of our original members since the conception of our Network Group. Steve Leitch is a Certified Management Account with over 30+ years of experience in the field. Steve was also the 1st presenter in our group since its conception almost a year ago. He will be presenting a 15 minute lecture on HST, followed by a QA period of 15 minutes. This will be one of the most important presentations our group will have ever hosted as the HST issue is important to us **ALL** right here in Ontario. The HST presentation will provide insight on both the consumers point of view and also the business owners point of view. Steve is extremely informative and probably one of the best experts in his field, always well informed. I highly recommend you attend this presentation, as it is not only free, but also being held after business hours.

7:30 PM - At random, about 20-30 members will be called to the floor to provide a brief introduction of who they are and what they do. Please try to limit your introduction to 15-20 seconds maximum! Time pending, more members may be called to the floor.

8:00 PM - 9:00 PM - Socializing and one-on-one networking will start. We request that for your safety, you go to the top floor (members lounge) attached to the council chambers. Volunteers will guide you to the room.
