Event Information

I am excited to announce the last Canadian judge conference of the year! This event will be hosted at the Firkin on Danforth. The Firkin will have food available for purchase and I encourage eveyone to provide them with patronage. After the event anyone who wants to can move to Face to Face upstairs for mtg and board games. If you are a L0 this will be a great place to test and prepare for L1. If you want to test please select the option in the application. (Note testing at the event does not qualify you for foils.)
