Canadian Club of Toronto — News
Canadian Club of Toronto

The Canadian Club of Toronto is Canada’s preeminent public affairs podium. Since 1897, we have served an ambitious and important mission: to connect Canadians with world-class leaders and newsmakers and be a leading platform for influencers to engage Canadians on what matters most.

Over our 125 year history as a not-for-profit organization, we continue to be a forum for Governors General and Prime Ministers, CEOs and Nobel laureates, scientists, artists and innovators. We have a proud tradition of hosting national and international leaders in politics, business, social innovation and the media, and our members and audiences are drawn from an equally diverse and distinguished group of leaders.

The Canadian Club addresses routinely generate national coverage across multiple platforms. In addition to reported media coverage and our in-person audience of several hundred people, we make our programming accessible to all Canadians through broadcasts on cable television and webcasts, available online.

Events run between September and June in downtown Toronto. As an independent, non-profit organization, we make all our events open to the public. Tickets can be purchased online or through our office at 416-364-5590.

Leading the US out of a severe recession, President Ronald Reagan famously remarked: “Government is not the solution to our problem. Government is the problem.” Michael Bryant, Ontario’s Minister of Economic Development, says today’s economic challenges demands Reverse Reaganism. In the supra-ideological environment we are now in, governments of all partisan stripes are looked to for solutions, intervening in the economy like never before. Please join us on Monday, May 4th, when the Honourable Michael Bryant argues that the Ontario Government’s econofix is pursuing a robust policy of uber entrepreneurism, a laser-guided strategy of direct business investment and tax changes, plus demand-side policies, so we can together jump ahead in the global economy. Bryant’s address will sure to be timely, all the more so coming as it does mere days after Chrysler Corporation’s deadline set by the United States and Canada for radical restructuring.
