10:00am- Sergei Khrushchev, Senior Fellow at Thomas J. Watson Jr. Institute for International Studies at Brown University, Re: The son of former Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev comes to town tomorrow, Thursday, November 7th for a CIGI Signature Lecture. “Kennedy, Khrushchev and ‘Six More Years’: What They Might Have Accomplished, 1963-1969,” looks at the fiftieth anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s assassination, and is an opportunity to consider one of the most tantalizing what-if scenarios of the twentieth century: what might President Kennedy and Premier Khrushchev have accomplished if the former survived Dallas and the latter avoided the coup that removed him from power in October 1964?
10:30am- John Geddes, Ottawa Bureau Chief at Maclean’s Magazine, Re: Senators Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau were suspended yesterday. The upper chamber suspended the three without pay for filing questionable expense claims.
