Rempel Garner proposed the health committee (HESA) undertake a study to look at 17 different elements, including rapid, at-home testing; vaccine development; long-term care protocols within federal jurisdiction; the Public Health Agency of Canada ’s Global Public Health Intelligence Network; contact tracing protocol; and Canada’s level of preparedness for future pandemics. The motion also proposed that various ministers, including those for health, procurement and public safety, be required to appear before the committee separately for three hours each in order to answer questions about the government’s response to COVID-19. Rempel Garner’s motion was introduced after opposition members of the committee voted to adjourn the debate on a motion presented by Liberal MP and committee member Tony Van Bynen (Newmarket-Aurora, Ont.), who was calling for a study on the mental health impacts of COVID-19 on Canadians.

  • 2019 AMA-Sheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium
    2019 AMA-Sheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium June 13 - 16 New York, NY 2 54th AMA-Sheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium CO-CHAIRS’ WELCOME Since 1966, the American Marketing Association-Sheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium has offered a wonderful opportunity for the very best doctoral students to engage and network with the world’s most distinguished marketing scholars. The Consortium provides a unique forum for the exchange of ideas, learning, and relationship building, where the focus of attention is on the leaders of today training the leaders of tomorrow. This will take place through a variety of presentations, workshops, and breakout group sessions, along with networking and social events that encourage intellectual interactions and collaboration among illustrious marketing Faculty and the doctoral Fellows. The theme of this year’s Consortium is “The Interdisciplinary Field of Marketing.” We have attempted to create sessions that emphasize how problems in marketing can be attacked from different research disciplines. As a result, the session titles are topics such as “Branding” and “Innovation.” Our goal is to motivate Fellows to think first about how to solve a particular research problem and then consider what methods and perspectives should be brought to bear on it. In addition, we have the usual sessions on managing your career, teaching, and meeting the editors of the major journals in the field. We have a range of social and free time activities planned as well such as an authentic Chinese dinner in Chinatown, a boat cruise down the Hudson River with fantastic views of the Statue of Liberty, and tours of historic Greenwich Village, where our school is located.
