Greetings,

 The OPC is pleased to provide information on the 13^th Annual OPC Debating Competition and Workshop scheduled to be held on Sunday , May 1^st, 2016 at the Mohawk College Centre for Innovation in Hamilton.

We would like to encourage cadets to once more take part in this amazing program that aims to improve the communication skills of Air Cadets by developing their ability to deliver logical and persuasive arguments and to foster the principles of teamwork in a positive, competitive environment.

 You may find more information, by following the link to the debating website –  www.cpi-hamilton.ca/DebatingHome.htm

Last year’s championship debate is posted at the bottom of the webpage and is a great tool and visual aid that demonstrates the debating skills of our talented Air Cadets.

 All relevant documents have also been posted on the OPC Website -> Files -> Cadet Program -> Debating – > 2016.

 This year’s Debating Program Coordinator is OPC Director Mr. Mark Thususka and he can be reached via email at: m-thususka@rogers.com
