About the Event

 

Housing affordability is a policy issue that has broad implications to the social well-being of populations in cities around the world, not just here in Canada. Liz Forsyth, KPMG’s Global Lead for Government and Lead for Human and Social Services, has a deep understanding of the affordability issue and how governments have responded globally.

We are pleased to host an informal luncheon for Public Policy Forum members with an interest in gaining a global perspective. Lunch will be served. The discussion will provide lively debate, big questions and potential solutions based on examples from around the world and will highlight how Canada places amongst its peers.
