Retired lawyer Bernard Pinsky tells the story of his father Rubin’s life, this “ordinary Jewish man” somehow survived the Holocaust in Eastern Europe by joining a roving band of partisan resistance fighters.
Mr. Pinsky was born and raised in Winnipeg, MB, where he graduated with a BA and LLB from the University of Manitoba. He is married, has two adult sons, and lives in Vancouver, BC, where he practiced law for more than 40 years. Bernard is now engaged full-time as board chair of the Ronald S. Roadburg Foundation.

Technology: will it save, serve or sink us? With professor Emeritus David Wangler
2024-05-07 13:00 - 15:00 | Alberta
The idea that technology might be less than beneficial or even harmful is surprising for many of us. Those who strongly support technology repeatedly point to and argue for its many benefits. These are indeed present and expanding but what is seldom noted is the fact that technology does many obvious things FOR us but it also does things TO us which are seldom acknowledged or discussed and may result in a world where we are influenced or controlled by the technology we have created.
Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers?
