Video: Big city mayors on the future of Canada
On Thursday, February 5, mayors from the big cities across Canada met in Toronto to discuss the most pressing issues facing their citizens. "Canada's Cities, Canada's Future" confirmed that the prosperity of the country relies on successful cities, and the mayors agreed we need the following:
- A new era of cooperation between all orders of government focused on our most pressing challenges: jobs, the economy and our quality of life.
- Sustainable levels of infrastructure investment across all orders of government.
- A long-term plan for housing that does away with ad-hoc programs and places affordability at the top of the priority list.
- Dedication to cutting commute times including hard targets.
After the meeting, six of the mayors, including Mayor Nenshi did a special two-hour televised panel discussion about the issues. You can view that full special here.
