The Greater Golden Horseshoe is one of the fastest growing regions of North America. It is a leading global nexus for employment, trade, culture and research, and attracts people and jobs because of its range of economic opportunities and high quality of life. With such an increase comes a greater demand for supporting

infrastructure such as transit, roads, sewers, energy and a full range of community amenities.

Is the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe on track? Come and hear industry leaders provide commentary on the successes, challenges and opportunities.
