* An international bank draft is a cheque issued by a bank outside of Canada, in Canadian funds. Your bank must be associated with a Canadian bank and show the name of both banks on the draft for it to be valid. Please make sure your bank draft is made payable to “WEC Montreal 2010 c/o JPdL” and lists your name and the name of the congress in reference. Once issued, you will then need to mail the bank draft to us at the above address. Unidentified bank drafts will not be processed.
