Anchored by its rich natural resources, Northern Ontario is emerging as an important driver of the province’s economic growth. While southern Ontario faces significant headwinds from tariffs and other pressures, the North’s resource-based economy is generating strong hiring, rising wages and increased demand for workers.

What challenges and opportunities arise from this “tale of two economies”? How can governments, industry and communities work together to unlock Northern Ontario’s full potential and create greater prosperity across the province?

Join Canadian Club Toronto on November 2 to hear from The Honourable George Pirie, Ontario’s Minister of Northern Economic Development and Growth, followed by a panel discussion featuring Her Worship Michelle Boileau, Mayor of Timmins; Michelle Moore, General Manager, Agnico Eagle Mines; Charla Robinson, President, Thunder Bay Chamber of Commerce; and Candice Tourville, Business Development Officer, Taykwa Tagamou Nation, moderated by Monica Banting, National Mining & Metals Leader, PwC Canada.

NEW EVENT: There’s a 90% chance you live within ten minutes of one of his stores. Odds are PC Optimum is among the apps on your phone. And, if you plan to get a flu shot this fall, more of you will roll up your sleeve at Shoppers Drug Mart than anywhere else. It’s why Galen Weston remains a household name long after his commercials left the air.

The fourth-generation leader of his family’s businesses, Galen is an advocate for patient capital and the value of thinking in decades, not quarters. That long-term view underpins his belief that Canada’s private sector is essential to Canadians’ prosperity, and that market-based principles are increasingly relevant in both public policy and philanthropy.

Join Canadian Club Toronto on October 30 when Galen G. Weston, Chairman of Loblaw Companies Limited and CEO of George Weston Ltd., will draw on his own experience navigating the erosion of trust in the private sector, and the need to champion Canadian business as part of the solution to Canada’s challenges, rather than the problem.
