SUMMARY:Databells Debut – Opening Night Vernissage
DESCRIPTION:This opening night event is the official debut of the Databells art installation by Rich Loen. As an immersive experience\, it dares to promise intrigue\, wonder\, whimsy\, and a sense of discoverability for you to explore. Special to the opening night is a reveal experience that will be uniquely performed only at this vernissage event. As an attendee\, you can expect to be part of the unveiling experience\, as you are welcomed through the Databells installation. Accompanying this will be a live jazz performance (you’ll have to guess who\, because this is a surprise!). There will also be an assortment of catering and drinks for you to enjoy as part of this very unique metropolitan-feeling art experience\, right here in Ottawa. \nDatabells is an immersive experience featuring a quirky and eclectic collection of reclaimed bells (from cowbells\, to jingle bells\, to doorbells\, to giant bells)\, all interconnected via sophisticated software which makes each bell chime in time to a large variety of statistics. Bells might ring when: “a star is born in our galaxy”\, “someone dies due to smoking”\, “a ship passes through the Suez canal”\, “an Amazon package is delivered”\, “Someone in this room just farted”\, and so on. This conceptual art piece gently guides the experiencer through a winding path of custom wood tables\, all arranged in an experiential statistical symphony. \nTickets are required and can be secured through Eventbrite\, or accessed through our website: salondesbananes.com

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Recruitment Process: Navigating Incoming Legal Requirements under Ontario’s Employment Standards Act
DESCRIPTION:Since 2021\, the Government of Ontario has passed several iterations of its Working for Workers legislation\, each of which has amended important employment-related statutes like the Employment Standards Act (ESA) and the Occupational Health and Safety Act. \nNotably\, the Working for Workers Four Act\, 2024 and the Working for Workers Five Act\, 2024 both created new legal requirements under the ESA in respect of the recruitment process. With these new requirements set to come into effect on January 1\, 2026\, it’s crucial that employers act proactively in the coming weeks and months to ensure that they properly understand the scope of their new statutory obligations and adequately prepare for compliance. \nJoin Jake Tolton in an informative webinar that will cover topics including: \n\nThe scope of the new requirements\, which touch specifically on publicly advertised job postings and related application forms\, post-interview communication with interviewees and record retention.\nAreas of potential concern or ambiguity that employers should be aware of in preparing for compliance.\nPractical tips and suggested steps for ensuring compliance with the new requirements as of January 1\, 2026.\n\nREGISTER NOW
