TORONTO, January 18, 2022 – Today, the Toronto Region Board of Trade submitted a letter to City Council with recommendations ahead of its upcoming 2023 budget. The submission outlines key opportunities to bolster the Toronto region’s economy, support businesses, and create a long-term plan for growth.

We are urging City Council to strengthen our region’s economy amid rising costs and a looming recession, improve public transit infrastructure to reduce congestion, and ensure our businesses can attract and retain talent.
