Hello Toronto Elixir,

It's been a while,

Our lives have all be affected by the recent events and this meetup was no different.

That said, we miss you all and even if it won't be the same as when our gracious sponsors host us we wanna try to meet nonetheless.

So, we'll do it online!

The appointment is for Thursday May 21st, 6:30 pm, Zoom link is attached to this event.
