Shaping the future of the Toronto region
Toronto Board of Trade members want to do business in a globally
competitive region that is a highly desirable place to live and
work.
The Board is a strong and influential voice on issues that matter

And, through effective advocacy, drive action toward this vision.

Our focus on key priority areas has already
produced significant results. The
Board was instrumental in the creation of Metrolinx, the regional agency

gridlock. Our fair taxation advocacy led to reforms in provincial and
city tax rates and the Board successfully encouraged the province to
take back responsibility for social program costs.
