 Welcome back everybody. I'm Peter Clausi with Investor Intel. In a couple of weeks it's the world-famous mining show PDAC 2021. I haven't seen a lot of my friends since that show last year in Barrington. You're one in that group. Barrington Miller from the Canadian Securities Exchange. How are you? I'm doing well Peter. Thanks for having me. So mining show is going to be virtual this year. I've been through the platform. It's going to be a little weird. What's the CSE planning? Well we're planning a couple things. We're going to still have our investor booth which is the the mainstay as far as the front-facing portion for the Canadian Securities Exchange. But we are also designated as a media partner with PDAC. As is Investor Intel. Well done. Hours came about through the Mining Over Canada initiative which we did in the fall of 2020. Right. It was a six-week odyssey across the country. During that time we had the privilege. But it was a virtual odyssey. You weren't leaving your home. Virtual odyssey. But we had the pleasure of of interviewing Felix Lee, the current president of PDAC. And the response was overwhelming. And I mean you can not to do a plug but you can check us check it out on CSETV on YouTube. I like Felix. Mining Over Canada. Yeah Felix was actually the whole PDAC team in getting that going. So we're doing we're covering two fronts. We will have our our media portion and then we'll have our investor portion. With the media portion I believe we'll have footage and everything related to Mining Over Canada as well as interviews with mining companies are valued mining issuers on the CSE. What are you doing? Is it live streaming? 150. Some of it will be live. Some of it will be pre-recorded. Okay what about in the investor portion? The investor portion again where we're sort of in the same boat as you. We'll have our virtual booth set up. Actually right now we're going through booth duty and booth assignments. Which makes it pretty easy when you have a national company. People on the east coast they're gonna have the morning shift. People on the west coast they'll have the evening shift. What a lot of our listeners may or may not know is that even though PDAC runs from March I think third to the eighth or fifth to the ninth. First Sunday of March to the Wednesday. Yeah the the housing platform will be available for I believe three months. So the event will take place but then if you missed it you'll have an opportunity to to to visit. So are you proactively reaching out to listed companies to set up interviews or do they have to contact you? You know what it's a it's a sweet mixture of both. There's a there's a few companies staple companies that have reached out as soon as January hits. We have our annual we call it our the speed pitch. So it'll be at our investor luncheon. Companies will get up there. You have two minutes. After the you know one second after you literally get the hook and that's either done by Rob Cook who will you know start start clapping. We've had a we've had a NHL goal light go off the this year. We're doing it a little different. It will be part of a bigger celebration which I don't want to give too many details away but you'll have to stay tuned. So companies have reached out. They've started in January. There's at least three or four. And I knew these emails were coming like hey I want to be second speaking. Hey I want to be third. I want to be first which is great. And for the other companies because we're doing it virtually this year or because PDAC is doing it virtually there's more of an opportunity for companies that wouldn't be able to join or travel or whatever PDAC is expensive. By the time you do the show your accommodation the inevitable food beverages perhaps it can be a $10,000 a week fairly easily. Oh for sure. And when we were talking with Felix he said that they were exploring doing this anyways like it's you know the time frame just got moved up a little bit because obviously of the pandemic but it wasn't completely new or foreign to them. So this is a chance really for the world to see PDAC and for PDAC to get to every corner of the planet because we are doing it virtually. And I'm looking forward to that. The dates are March 7th to the 10th. Oh March 7th to the 10th. Awesome. Sunday to the Wednesday. What are the odds we can get Rob Cook playing guitar and singing because he's pretty good. Rob is really good. You know if we're trying to get him to to post this on YouTube but he has a he has a pandemic song which you wrote which is really really clever. Yeah to lock down again. He said to me. Oh awesome good. So we're trying to get that get that going. I think he might be we could coerce him. I do believe it. I will buy him a virtual whiskey if he does that. Make that too. Barrington it's always good to see you. You're one of the faces of the CSC and do a good job for that organization. Well thank you Peter and thank you for not only your support but more importantly your friendship to me and to the Canadian Securities Exchange. Thanks buddy. You have yourself a good day. Thank you.
