IN-person summit - TORONTO
April 26, 2023 | 8:30AM - 1:30PM (ET)
Are we ready for the next 10 million Canadians?
There are 500,000 people arriving in Canada every year, with most of those new Canadians landing in the nation’s largest metropolis — Metro Toronto. Within two decades, we’ll be a country of 50 million, most living in cities.
Launching our CityAge Canada series, CityAge Toronto will set out the bold moves and investments we need to make to benefit from this immigration and population growth.
To retain liveability, combat climate change and offer opportunity to all, we must rethink how we design and build our cities for our future. It means rethinking energy, transportation, urban design, smart infrastructure, telecommunications and public services like hospitals and health care.
Join us in April, for CityAge Toronto — held in Canada’s largest and fastest growing metropolis. We are bringing together the ideas and people — from here and beyond — who will map out Canada’s urban future.
