Something New!

Dateline: 09/29/99

Today we introduce a couple of new pages here at Investing: Canada and give you an update Monday's live chat with Jonathan Chevreau.

Networking is Here!

In order to help Canadians investing professionals and interested parties develop contacts within the Canadian investment community, we have established our new Networking page. And additionally, we are offering you an opportunity to post your business card. Please note that we are posting only personal profiles and business cards, not generic corporate ones.

Follow the links to get to the relevant pages:

Additionally, we have live chat facilities for interested parties that may want to coordinate a cross-country meeting on the Internet. As the chat we had with Jonathan Chevreau on Monday shows, such a conference can faciltate brainstorming and discussion from your desk with associates around the country and even the world. It costs you nothing.

If I am notified ahead of time, I can reserve the Chat Room for your group and arrange to have a transcript recorded for you. The Chat Room also has a Private Chat function. This let's you confer with someone in the room without the other parties seeing the messages. Private messages are not logged. Email me if you might find this service useful.

Chevreau Live Chat

Monday's live chat with Jonathan Chevreau on Y2K and investing was a spirited and entertaining hour and a quarter. A number of readers joined in, asking questions and offering opinions. An editied transcript is now posted.

Jonathan Chevreau Live Chat Transcript

I'd like to thank Jon for joining us and offering his insights to our readers. I'd like to host more of these live chats with celebrity guests, so if there is someone you would enjoy chatting with as a guest, let us know and we'll try to get him or her to join us. If you are a public personality, perhaps a newsletter writer or want to offer your expertise on some topic of interest, drop us an email and we'll see what we can set up. Even better if you have your own network of associates you can publicize such a live chat to.

Remember! Our chat room is your chat room. It's there for you to make use of! (Even if it's just to meet with your Auntie in Moose Jaw!)

Comments? Suggestions? Why not post them on our Bulletin Board or email me.

Currently reading: I recently received a review copy of Paul Lermitte's Allowances, Dollars and Sense: A Proven System for Teaching Your Kids About Money. That may take a few weeks to get to. But you may want to check out his new Making Allowances website in the meantime. It is a superb site for kids based on Paul's book.
