On Friday, the federal government announced $10 million in funding to support the University of Toronto's Grid Modernization Centre, the first of its kind in Canada. The centre will convene a variety of stakeholders — from utilities to municipalities to companies — to develop a more efficient and resilient power grid and test green tech solutions. Demand for electricity will grow as we transition toward net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Any Toronto Region business that uses technology will benefit from having a sustainable action plan for keeping up with #cleantech advancements for years to come. We were proud to join Minister Ya'ara Saks, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment Julie Dabrusin and our Board Member Chris Yip at this exciting announcement.

It’s our job to be optimistic about Toronto, but this isn’t naive idealism. The city’s growth trajectory has brought serious challenges, but these are common to the great metropolitan centres of the world.
From Collision's departure to our struggles with congestion, I'm hearing a lot of alarmist takes about Toronto right now. Let's be honest, the city is facing some very real challenges that must be acknowledged. In spite of that, many of these narratives remain short-sighted. Let's consider the other side of this story.
Collision may be gone, but Toronto has never been so strong
