Meeting on Monday, March 22, 2010
7:30 p.m. Info session
7:45 p.m. Program
8:45 p.m. Mix-and-mingle


Back by popular demand — and just in time to help us navigate the new HST — Dimitris Stubos will be discussing income tax and other tax issues at March’s branch meeting program. He will be tailoring his presentation to editors and people who work in the arts, whether as freelancers, contractors, or employees.

Already have a question in mind? Please send it to the program chair at toronto_br_program_chair@editors.ca, who will forward it on to Dimitris. He has graciously offered to review any questions in advance to have answers prepared and to help him frame his discussion.


Dimitris Stubos is the principal accountant at Base Nine Financial, which specializes in serving the artistic community. He prepares tax returns for individuals and small businesses.

For more information please visit the EAC Toronto branch website.

General Membership Meeting Information

The Toronto branch of the Editors' Association of Canada meets at 7:30 p.m. on the fourth Monday of every month (except July, August, and December).

Business Session

In addition to providing updates about the Toronto branch’s news, events, and activities, during the business session members, from time to time, will vote on matters of importance. Members and guests are also given the opportunity to ask questions or offer feedback. There are three business sessions per year, held before the program at the October, February, and May meetings.

The information sessions also offer members and guests opportunities for questions and feedback.
