Empire Club of Canada: Ontario Politics in Focus: Assessing Premier Doug Ford’s Mandate, Leadership Shifts, and Future Prospects

Thursday, March 28, 2024, 5:30 P.M. - 8:00 P.M. EST

As we near the halfway point of Premier Doug Ford’s second mandate, it’s time for a stock take on his achievements and challenges – and what it means for the Spring sitting of the Ontario legislature.

With the election of Bonnie Crombie as the Leader of the Ontario Liberal Party in December, the main protagonists of the next Ontario election are now set. Ms. Crombie is a brand name in the vote rich GTA, and while she will not have a seat in the legislature, she will be a new force for Doug Ford to reckon with, while also setting up a “progressive primary” with Marit Stiles’ NDP.

  • How has Marit Stiles fared in her first year on the job as Leader of the Official Opposition?
  • Will the Ford government need to recalibrate policy to respond to the recent changes in political leadership?
  • Will Bonnie Crombie’s election finally dig the Ontario Liberals out of their multi-year funk?

Our political experts will debate these hot topics – and more.  Please join us on March 28th for a fantastic evening discussion on Ontario politics.

Empire Club of Canada: Mental Health: We Have Come a Long Way, But Are We There Yet?

Friday, April 12 2024, 11:30 A.M. - 2:00 P.M. EST

The state of our mental health affects how we move through life and experience the world every day. It touches not only on our relationship with ourselves, but also with our family, friends, and colleagues.

A significant portion of our society spends most of their day at work. Structural and interpersonal barriers create challenges on the path to mental health in the workplace, which means that despite best efforts, it is not always easy or possible to leave our internal struggles at home. In recent years, there has been increasing discourse and action taken to promote mental health in the workplace, which leads to the question: have we done enough, yet?

Join the Honourable Michelle O’Bonsawin, a judge of the Supreme Court of Canada, as she opens up a conversation about mental health in the workplace. Drawing on years of experience as General Counsel for the Royal Ottawa Health Care Group, she discusses the progress made so far and offers solutions on the pathway forward.
