[Public Comments] Proposed Dates for ICANN Public Meetings 2021 –2023

[Sam Lanfranco]

Ayden et. al.,

The only official Canadian conflict (as already noted) is ICANN71 where 
it ends on July 1st. July 1st is Canada Day, a major national holiday 
and the start (in 2021) of a long summer weekend. One way to solve that 
would be for ICANN to once again meet in Canada. It met once in Toronto 
so Vancouver looks tempting....and they would dearly love to host ICANN. 
And then there are Montreal, Halifax, Calgary etc.

ICANN71 there would solve the conflict with Canada Day and leave 
delegates to enjoy the ceremonies of the Canada Day long weekend in the 
True North, Strong and Free.
