Help shape our mission to drive a stronger, more competitive future.
The rules of the game are changing.
The pressure on our economy, and business leaders, has never been greater. From the uncertainty of tariffs to growing global volatility, certain economic factors are beyond our control. But a stronger, more resilient economy demands action from both business and government.
Backed by leaders of leaders across Toronto’s business community, we're highlighting the work business is doing to supercharge our economy and spotlighting the barriers to success. Together, we're leading a movement to build prosperity today and for future generations.
Stronger Starts Here.
Join us as we call upon our elected leaders to put growth first and take bold action to create an environment where business can confidently grow and invest. Let’s play to win.
If there is a silver lining to today’s uncertainty, it is that it has driven a conversation around Canada’s economic potential and the kind of country we want to be. It has become abundantly clear that for too long Canada has let its own growth and productivity stagnate, and the country now finds itself at a crossroads."
Today’s opportunity is not just about growth and getting back in the game – it is about defending, protecting and enhancing our rich history, our culture, our identity – and indeed our sovereignty. If ever there was a time for us to step up this is our time. If ever there was a time for true courageous leadership, this is it."
Reliable, resilient and cost-effective energy has always been this country’s life force, and the foundation for a healthy economy and our great quality of life. To sustain this life force, we must invest in it."
Like nearly half of the people living in this region, I chose to move here because of the many opportunities and quality of life. We have so much potential in this region, yet somehow, we have lost our way and our competitive advantage. As a parent and business leader, I am leaning in to support the Business Council of Toronto and develop solutions to the growing productivity gap to increase prosperity for future generations.”
As a firm focused on the future, we support the important work of the BCT in ensuring competitiveness and innovation continue to define our business community."
Toronto teems with untapped potential, waiting to be unlocked. Achieving it requires equal parts innovation, optimism, and productivity. We're just one player among many in our city, but together, we are catalysts, capable of driving innovation at scale to improve our environment and our communities.”
