Next Week: Arts and Culture Right Now

From coast to coast to coast, Canada is home to some of the world’s most incredible and well-known natural landscapes. And while studies have proven the tangible benefits that being outdoors in nature can have for one’s health, Canadians need to be able to access the many trails, parks, mountains, and coastlines across this great nation to enjoy them.

At Manulife Presents The Walrus Talks Nature, supported by Trans Canada Trail, leaders will come together to discuss the value of access to nature, including the trails that act as a gateway to Canada’s diverse landscapes.

Join us, in Toronto or online, to discover the joys of nature and how we can access all it has to offer.

Carolynne Crawley, Founder, Msit No’kmaq; Co-founder, Turtle Protectors; and Forest Therapy Guide

NEW EVENT: In our complex world, we often hear that “everything connects to everything else.” The purpose of this one-day conference is to examine some of the unexpected or underappreciated linkages between advancing climate policy and achieving other important policy objectives.

Climate policy may not connect to everything else, but it certainly connects with many things, and those connections make policy design and implementation even more complicated than normal.

Join us, in Toronto or online, for a riveting day of discussion and debate about advancing good policy for the economy and the environment.
