Festschrift and Dinner to Honour David Slater

David Slater was celebrating his 80th birthday this October. To honour his many contributions to economics in this country, the Centre for the Study of Living Standards organized a dinner that was held Friday, October 19, 2001 in Ottawa at the Chateau Laurier hotel.

At the dinner David was presented with a festschrift entitled The State of Economics in Canada: Festschrift in Honour of David Slater, to which many leading Canadian economists have contributed. In addition, a small number of persons who have worked with David over the years had been asked to say a few works about their experiences with him. Speakers included David Dodge, Ted English, Patrick Grady, Bill Hood, Steve Handfield Jones, Kathleen Macmillan, Ed Neufeld, Simon Reisman, Andrew Sharpe, Gordon Sparks, and Ian Stewart.
