On May 15th, 2023, Century Initiative and The Globe and Mail teamed up to present Future Workforce: How will Canada compete?
From academics and researchers to policymakers and private sector thought leaders, the day’s speakers delivered compelling arguments and poignant remarks relating to the future of Canada’s workforce. We were joined by Jean Boivin of BlackRock Investments and Dr. Parag Khanna of Climate Alpha as our keynote speakers, enjoyed a lively conversation between Mark Wiseman and the Honourable Navdeep Bains, and heard from many other thought leaders throughout the day. We would like to thank our sponsors Palette Skills, The Future Skills Centre, World Education Services, and Windmill Microlending, without whom the day would not have been possible.
