Canadian cities often share the Bay Area's progressive image as leaders in forward-thinking social policy. But what kind of urban challenges really exist just across our northern border, and how are they addressed? Hear how one Canadian city is innovating public sector leadership, and how it compares with current local initiatives encouraging civic engagement and reform. A reception will follow the panel. Co-presented by the Digital Moose Lounge.
