Sydney and Toronto share remarkable similarities in culture, community and global economic status, and in major waterfront and city centre revitalization. This event features a discussion on the very different ways these cities are achieving similar goals from the leaders of waterfront renewal in both cities.

Toronto is facing tough decisions in the coming years: does the City have the right toolkit to fund high quality public services and badly needed capital improvements? Do we have a solid foundation on which to position our city-building objectives?

In this presentation, Zack Taylor explores findings from his recent IMFG Paper on the meaning of good local governance for Canadian cities, and how to measure it.
