In Person

Toronto’s financial model is at a breaking point. Rising costs for businesses and residents are undermining our region’s competitiveness, and last-minute government bailouts aren't a sustainable fix. The three-year "New Deal" with Queen’s Park provided only a temporary patch—it’s time for a long-term strategy.

Imagine a Toronto region where businesses thrive, supported by robust infrastructure, innovative partnerships, and a tax environment that encourages growth. This future is within reach, if we take decisive action today.

We need a new approach led by businesses that challenges:

  • Cities to deliver services more efficiently.
  • Municipalities to unlock value from their public assets.
  • Provincial and Federal governments to commit to predictable, long-term financial support.

Be part of the momentum. Join us to gain insights from top leaders on strategies that can reshape our city’s landscape, unlock funding and create new opportunities for growth.

With an incredible lineup of speakers, this event promises actionable ideas that will have a lasting impact on your business and the broader community. Don’t miss the chance to be a catalyst for real change.
