Arthur Cockfield, who is already known to readers of this blog, will be participating October 10 in the McGill Tax Policy Colloquium. I have no idea what his topic will be, however readers in the Montreal area might be interested in attending. (I assume the event is open to the public, but that is perhaps worth checking in advance.)

Here is more information:
