Subsidies available to attend Canadian Assn. of Journalists conference

The Canadian Media Guild will provide a subsidy to three members to attend the annual conference of the Canadian Association of Journalists, which is taking place May 23 to 25 in Edmonton.

Selected people will be reimbursed for 75% of their travel costs to attend the convention. Winners who live in Edmonton will be reimbursed for 75% of their registration fees. The deadline for submitting your entry is April 17. The winners will be asked to write a brief report for the Guild’s national executive. Members who have received a similar subsidy from the Guild in the past two years are not eligible.
