Shaping Public Policy in Canada

Canada 2020’s annual policy summit returns with a forward-looking agenda focused on unlocking the next era of national progress.

Across the country, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and civic leaders are facing decisions that will shape the future of Canada: how to lead in artificial intelligence, optimize our immigration systems for long-term growth, expand financial access through open banking, and rebuild the civic and social fabric that keeps communities strong.

At a time when the world is shifting fast, this summit asks a clear question: how can Canada shape—not just react to—the forces defining our future?

On September 23rd join Canada 2020 in Ottawa for Future Forward: Shaping Public Policy in Canada—a full-day gathering of leading thinkers, builders, and decision-makers from across the public, private, and nonprofit sectors.

This year’s conference will explore how Canada can:

•Lead in global AI competition;
•Modernize immigration policy to meet demographic and economic realities;
•Deliver open banking that expands competition and consumer choice;
•Reinvest in the civic commons and social trust;
•And advance an abundance agenda—from housing and energy to innovation and capital deployment.

Future Forward is Canada 2020’s annual platform to confront the country’s biggest policy questions—and spark the ideas and coalitions that will drive real-world change.
