I'm heading west bright and early in the morning to the only part of Canada where they're cheering every time the price of oil hits a new high. That's right, I'm Alberta-bound. I'll be flying into Calgary Wednesday morning and then driving up to beautiful Banff where I've been asked to participate in a panel discussion during the annual conference for the Intellectual Property Institute of Canada.
My job will be to explain to a bunch of smart lawyers why on earth they should talk to reporters and why reporters would want to talk to them.
My stay in Banff, however, will be all too brief. I should be back in Ontario by the end of the week.
