Habitat Canada is pleased to invite EDs and CEOs from across the country to Ottawa for a combined Habitat on the Hill and National Leadership Summit.
We’ll kick things off Monday, October 19 at 3 p.m. ET with a briefing for Habitat on the Hill. This mandatory session will help you better understand the political moment and provide a chance to discuss messaging and meeting tactics.
On Tuesday, October 20, we’ll meet with Members of Parliament and select officials to advance our shared housing priorities. The day will conclude with a mix and mingle with MPs and political staff at 3 Brasseurs, providing an opportunity to talk about housing and homeownership more informally.
Finally, on Wednesday, October 21, we’ll gather for the National Leadership Summit.
