Us -Too! Brampton General Meeting 
February 8 th, 2005

Around 60 members including 12 spouses attended this event
and listened in rapt attention to the group's old time
favorite ally, supporter and well wisher Dr. David Evans
talk about his new role in a delightful talk entitled:

“What does a Coroner do anyway?”

Dr. David Evans, Chief Coroner Toronto West 2001

Dr. Evans presentation covered a brief history of the coroner's system,
the different death investigation systems, why death investigations
are done, the Coroner's role, The Coroners Act, the powers of a
Coroner in Ontario and benefits of the results of death investigations.

Dr. Evans went to explaining what were Inquests, what they accomplished,
how they were conducted and what was done. He elucidated his excellent
Power Point presentation with many images, graphics and several interesting
real life case studies showing modern day processes.

Dr. Evans has been amongst the earliest champions of our cause and many
of our our members know him well from his tenure at the Brampton Hospital
whilst they were under his care. In 2001 when he retired the group thought
we had lost friend and ally.

Soon after though Dr. Evans took up a new challenge. Despite his new role
Dr. Evans has continued to follow our chapter's development and activities
over the years. Members were eager to learn about his present role. Members
not only enjoyed his talk but for many it was an opportunity to renew
old and fond associations with him.

It was certainly an evening with a difference and a departure
from our traditional meetings!

We are delighted and thankful that Dr. Evans came and talked to
the group. We all wish him well in his new role and look forward
to welcoming him again sometime in future.
