Introduction

This one-day IFRS Hot Topics workshop has been specifically developed for Canadian oil and gas extractive entities and provides an invaluable opportunity to discuss essential IFRS conversion considerations and issues. Led by Deloitte IFRS oil and gas experts, participants will benefit from the discussion on last minute IFRS adoption issues for Canadian oil and gas entities before the mandatory transition in January 2011. Formal presentations and peer group discussions will focus on both technical and practical application of IFRS.
