Ahead of the semi-official start to the fall parliamentary social calendar next week, 3SixtyPublicAffairs hosted its annual “post-summer fête” and fundraiser at the Métropolitain Brasserie on Sept. 4. Capping off the opening day of the Canada Drug Agency’s yearly symposium, the annual fundraiser offered the attending pharmaceutical and healthcare technology representatives a chance to unwind and socialize after a long day of panels and plenaries.

Canada and 3Sixty made an initial combined donation of $5,000—presented to SGH CEO David Gourlay via a giant novelty cheque—to get the donations rolling, and the event raised an additional $1,000 by the night's end due partly to some light peer pressure.
