2017 CCRE Energy Leaders Roundtable

The 2017 CCRE Annual Energy Leaders Roundtable has become an essential forum for thought leaders to consider the critical energy issues of today and tomorrow. The Roundtable built on its 5-year success by bringing together speakers and leaders in the energy industry for brief presentations that provided open dialogue and a candid exchange of views and networking amongst participants.

We were pleased to have Anthony Haines, President and Chief Executive Officer of Toronto Hydro Corporation, and Elizabeth May, Leader of the Green Party of Canada and its first elected Member of Parliament representing Saanich-Gulf Islands in southern Vancouver Island, deliver keynote addresses.
