Just got back from the meeting with the lawyer. It went much better than I had feared. The man was competent, equally fluent in French and English, and was more than capable of analyzing a contract from the point of view of any of the affected parties. AND he was willing to give me clause-by-clause translations if I wanted them. All in all he went a long way to convince me that I should sign the thing. Which pleased my ex-boss immensely no doubt.

I had rather hoped to have lunch with the [livejournal.com profile] _sps_ but he has apparently misplaced one of his big toes and isn't going anywhere till he finds it again. Lets all hope that happens soon.

Downtown

Gotta go downtown and listen to a lawyer for a couple of hours. I own shares in a company I founded way back when, and they are going through another round of funding. This time though its with the Quebec government, so everything is in French. I can read French if its not legalese. As is I can't make head or tails of the contract they want me to sign, so I told them I wont sign unless they pay for a lawyer to answer all my questions. Well, they did, and I'm off to a 10:00 am appointment in just a few minutes.

Hopefully the guy speaks English AND is competent. Something I've found to be rare in Quebec lawyers. (The number of contracts I've been asked to sign with obvious and stupid mistakes is legion.)

So, this means that I'll be downtown (actually in the old port) and free from noonish onwards. If anyone wants to have lunch with me, this would be a good morning to contact me by Cell.

Oh, one last thing: I just came across the empty CD holder for Dragon-Half. So, if a certain someone who borrowed said CD is wondering what happened to the case, it was left here.
