Comment
I realise that this is a conference primarily for members of CAUCE and CNIE, but it is frankly unrealistic to expect people to commit to a paper or presentation with such little information.
This should be a major national conference for educational technology and online learning in Canada, and consequently I would expect the advance information to be better. There are many other good conferences around the same time, and although the theme for this conference is promising, it might be safer to choose an alternative if for financial reasons you have to make a conference commitment fairly soon.
