Toronto Community News sponsors forum to discuss challenges of ‘turbulent economic times
by GEORGE KAGAME
The economy and the recently approved Toronto City budget are set to be the major discussion topics as Mayor David Miller meets with the Toronto Board of Trade in the annual Mayor’s Luncheon at Delta Toronto East Hotel in Scarborough on Thursday 9th April.
Now in its 11th year, the Mayor’s annual luncheon brings together city administrators and the city’s business community, this year’s luncheon comes only a week after the budget totalling $ 8.7 billion was approved by the city council. The 2009 version is sponsored by Toronto Community News which publishes weekly newspapers in almost all the suburbs of Toronto and its business hubs in the centre and downtown.
Even many media houses have reported that the business community welcomed the budget, a communique from the organizers of the luncheon stated that members of the public are welcome to listen to the city’s economic players in analyzing the challenges of the current economic recession: “Given these turbulent economic times, join us at this year’s luncheon, perhaps more anticipated that any before, to hear the Mayor address the challenges our city faces and shared vision for the future”.
The luncheon is free for members of the public with tickets starting from $45 and tables available for booking at www.bot.com or by calling 416 862 4500
