Edmonton. Unprecedented infrastructure investment. A downtown renaissance underway. An innovative carbon-neutral community that will be home to 30,000 people. An entrepreneurial hub. Home to Canada's first municipal energy transition plan. And the logistical heart of the energy industry.
Through diplomacy and action, Edmonton's Mayor Don Iveson is part of a new narrative around responsible energy production — one that balances the need for ensuring Canadian energy reaches new markets, with real, long-term investments in sustainable energy initiatives.
Edmonton is a surprising leader when it comes to defining a practical pathway to energy resilience and efficiency, setting an example for how we can turn Canada's energy assets into an environmental and economic legacy.
Following his keynote remarks, Mayor Iveson will be joined onstage by Gary Mason for a moderated discussion.
Join Mayor Iveson on November 28 for Edmonton's confident, future-looking story and a discussion on a strong, balanced energy industry.
