The CALL annual conference is fast approaching! Be sure to register, if you have not done so already as hotel rooms are booking up quickly.
CALL is thrilled to welcome members back for the first in-person conference since 2019, and also to offer members the first opportunity to participate in a hybrid virtual/in-person conference. This year’s conference theme is From Labour Lawyers to Movement Lawyers: Collective Action in a Time of Division. The conference program is now available at: https://www.call-acams2022.com. This site will be regularly updated as the CALL Conference 2022 schedule is finalized, including social events, which we’ll be announcing in the weeks ahead.
For those attending in-person, please note that the deadline to book a hotel stay at the group rate for the CALL conference is Friday, May 20, 2022. You can find more information on our website. The rooms are being held as part of the Conference block at the Westin Nova Scotian and the group rate will expire after May 20th.
For those attending virtually, be sure to register by completing the registration form here. Note that there is a reduced rate for virtual participation. Those attending virtually, as with those attending in-person, will have access to all the conference programming live and the recordings afterwards.
If cost is a barrier to attending the conference, there is a reduced “solidarity rate” for in-person registration set at $495 and at $250 for virtual. CALL is committed to ensuring that cost is not a barrier to any members, and invites any members who need any further adjustments made to the registration fee to contact Amy Kishek (akishek@cupe.ca).
Lastly, CALL Council has struck a subcommittee to craft a COVID-19 Policy for the conference. The details will be announced soon in a separate email.
We look forward to seeing you in Halifax or online for the CALL Annual Conference 2022!

This year’s CALL conference, From Labour Lawyers to Movement Lawyers: Collective Action in a Time of Division, will be held from June 23 to June 26, 2022, at the Westin Nova Scotian in Halifax.
Building on the themes of recent years, including labour in a time of crisis and revolution, reconciliation and inclusion, and labour in diverse workplaces, CALL members are invited to put these ideas into practice to further advance the labour movement. The conference will continue to feature the popular Supreme Court and Appellate Courts Updates Sunday panel, the 10-Minute Labour Lawyer, the International Labour Rights Committee panel, as well as many of the much loved social functions. While we have planned for and encourage in-person attendance, you can also register to participate online. Please note that all sessions will be streamed between 8:30 am and 6:00 pm Atlantic Time.
