TBLA Fall Conference
2025 FALL CONFERENCE – OCTOBER 30 & 31
The 2025 Fall Conference will be held on October 30 & 31 at the Superior Inn & Conference Centre. We will enjoy meeting with many members of the local bar, as well as some from the northwest region. A celebratory dinner with the Ontario Court of Appeal will take place on the evening of October 30th, as they will be visiting Thunder Bay during the conference. In 2026, the Conference Committee will return to having a wine & cheese event on the Thursday evening.
The committee chairs are working diligently on their programs and expect to deliver another excellent set of sessions for our registrants. Full details of the conference will be posted on our conference page, including any updates on the CPD credits. If you have any suggestions, including possible guest speakers, for this year’s Fall Conference, please sent them to library@tbla.ca and they will be forwarded to the Conference Committee for consideration.
We are certainly hoping to see everyone again this fall!
