Force Majeure

​

If the CWIM Conference Organizing committee determines that the conference cannot be held in-person due to COVID-19 (either due to Public Health guidelines or a large number of cancellations due to the COVID-19 situation worsening in Canada) all registrations will be automatically converted to virtual with the difference in registration fees refunded. The cancellation policy above will still apply. All workshops will also be converted to virtual with fee differences refunded. Paid in-person events that cannot be converted to virtual (i.e. social events) will be refunded in full. 

​

This also applies to any other unforeseen emergencies that would restrict the ability to hold an in-person conference including strike, lock-out, riots, insurrection, war, pandemic, natural disaster or weather emergency restricting travel, government-imposed lockdown, act of God. 

​

The conference organizers reserve the right to change the schedule or replace a speaker if unforseen circumstances arise. If workshops are fundamentally changed, refunds will be provided for those workshops. CME credits for any and all sessions are not guaranteed until an official announcement has been made.
