On 15 April 2015, the IFRS Foundation Trustees and the Canadian Accounting Standards Oversight Council (AsSOC) jointly hosted an event to discuss Canada's perspective on IFRS and global standards.
The event saw an opening address by Linda Mezon, Chair of the Canadian Accounting Standards, a eulogy to Harvey Goldschmid, who passed away in February 2015, by Michel Prada, Chairman of the IFRS Foundation, a keynote speech by Hans Hoogervorst, Chairman of the IASB, and a panel discussion "IFRS and Global Standards: A Canadian Perspective".
We already reported on the speech by Mr Hoogervorst who presented a mission statement for the IASB and the IFRS Foundation. A video recording of the whole event including the panel discussion has now been made available on the IASB's website. The whole recording is about one hour and twenty minutes long - the press release indicates the timing of each contribution. Please click to access the recording through the press release.
