Editor's Note
There are two things that I would like to mention in this year end Newsletter. The first is that I would like to wish everyone a Happy Holiday Season. This is a time for everyone to remember their traditions and family, and think about ways that we can make everyone's lives a little bit better.
As everyone probably noticed, there hasn't been a newsletter for the last couple of months. I would like to avoid this in the coming months, to accomplish this I will require some help. If you see an interesting article that involves IEEE Canada or the interests of IEEE Canada please let me know. If someone in your section has won an award, write a small paragraph and send it to me. I will be more than happy to include it in the next Newsletter.
Thank you for the support
Jeffery MacKinnon
Submission Information
You can send any submissions by email to the editor: Jeffery MacKinnon at
newsletter@ieee.ca
Please ensure you send in your submission by the 20th of the
month
