The Trinidad and Tobago Association of Ottawa (TTAO) hosted a celebratory Dinner Dance, commemorating three important events: the 40th anniversary of the existence of the TTAO as an organisation; acknowledging the numerous achievements and accomplishments of Dr. Alfredo Walker HBM (Gold), Forensic Pathologist and Coroner, a proud “son of the soil” and a member of The Trinidad and Tobago Association of Ottawa; and celebrating and honouring the TTAO 2023 Scholarship winners.

This event took place on Saturday, October 28, 2023 at the Prime Venue Banquet Centre, on Prince of Wales Drive, Ottawa.  Part of the proceeds from this event went towards The Trinidad and Tobago Association of Ottawa Scholarship Fund. Our own Sarah Onyango was there to capture images from this annual society event.
