IS GWYNETH PALTROW WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING? WHEN CELEBRITY CULTURE & SCIENCE CLASH Author and Professor of Health Law and Science Policy
DR. TIMOTHY CAULFIELD
Celebrities are everywhere! This matters. Seriously. Research shows that popular culture has a profound influence on people’s health and that our ideals of beauty and success are framed by a celebrity-dominated worldview. In this fun and provocative presentation, Professor Timothy Caulfield will examine what science tells us about the influence of popular culture. He will also debunk common health myths and provide practical, evidence-based, recommendations relevant to both healthcare professionals and to individuals seeking to live a healthy lifestyle.
BOOK SIGNINGTimothy will be signing copies of his book following his keynote address
FINDING THE WARRIOR WITHIN: MOVING FORWARD & MAKING POSITIVE CHANGES!Motivational Speaker
MIKE SCOTT
When Mike Scott was 15 years old, he stayed up for nine days before finally crashing on a crystal meth bender. By the time he was in his early 20s, he was lying in a hospital bed, dying, as his organs shut down after a lifetime of alcohol and drugs. Today Mike is sober and sharing his message of hope. His story hits home for many; being separated from his family by Child and Family Services; bouncing from foster home to foster home; getting caught up in a dangerous life of theft, drugs, and violence, and losing his mother: a residential school survivor who spent her compensation money almost entirely on drugs and alcohol. Mike now inspires young people to move forward and make positive changes in their lives, and he will inspire you too!

YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL! Professional Speaker, Health & Energy Expert, Coach, & Author
MICHELLE CEDERBERG
In our busy lives we often feel guided by the belief of ‘not enough’; not enough time, not enough energy, not enough clients, not enough money. So for many, the idea that you can have it all is often met with resistance. But what if you could? When it comes to creating the life and career that we truly deserve it often comes down to two variables – choice and change – the choices that we make regarding how we use our time, energy and resources, and the things we’re willing to change to get the outcomes we desire. Are you focusing on the right things?

This talk will focus on practical de-escalation techniques, sometimes referred to as ‘defusing’ or ‘talking-down’. The techniques employ a range of verbal and nonverbal communication skills used by staff to prevent the escalation of aggressive behaviour and avoid violent interactions.

Joint Health and Safety Committees (JHSC) require a sound structure, mutual respect to be able to work as a cohesive team, and have the ability to effectively and consistently communicate with management. In the course of reviewing and dealing with health and safety issues, there are potential stumbling blocks to effective communication.

1:00 – 3:00 PMMock Coroner’s Inquest Dr. Michael Wilson, Regional Supervising Coroner
Ryan Conlin, Partner, Stringer LLP
Brad Smith, Partner, Weiler, Maloney, Nelson LLP
In certain circumstances, a Coroner’s Inquest is called into a workplace death. The Inquest is a public hearing into the events that led to the tragedy and a jury is charged to come up with recommendations to prevent similar deaths in the future. Building on the morning workshop and scenario, you will now learn more about the Inquest process, and what a Coroner’s Inquest seeks to discover in a workplace fatality through this mock scenario, complete with witnesses, jury members and legal counsel.
Join a team of four in a practical hands-on workshop where you will investigate a mock fatality. The workshop will begin with a theoretical element on accident investigation responsibilities and interviewing skills. Then listen to the testimony of witnesses subpoenaed to the stand at a Coroner’s Inquest in the re-creation of this fatality. See the evidence and emotion as it unfolds before you. This practical and realistic workshop is ideally geared to Supervisors, Safety Coordinators, Joint Health & Safety Committee representatives, any personnel with responsibility for other workers or would be expected to conduct accident investigations pursuant to the Occupational Health & Safety Act.
