In our recent report with RBC Thought Leadership, A Smarter Path: The Case for Post-Secondary Reform, we explored how Canada can better leverage the skills, talent, and research capacity of our world-class post-secondary institutions to sharpen Canada’s competitive edge and grow our economy.
As Canada’s leading cross-sector convenor and driver of change, we brought together leaders this summer across the country in a series of roundtables. Our goal? To surface new thinking about what’s working and what’s not, and build pathways and coalitions to facilitate change in the next ten years or less.
The roundtables, below, were generously hosted by our members and friends across the country:
- Toronto, Royal Bank of Canada
June 9, 2025 - Vancouver, University of British Columbia
June 12, 2025 - Calgary, Calgary Chamber of Commerce
June 17, 2025 - Winnipeg, Royal Bank of Canada
June 19, 2025 - Nova Scotia, Nova Scotia Community College
June 27, 2025 - Waterloo, D2L & University of Waterloo
July 10, 2025 - Montreal, Université de Montréal
July 15, 2025
Following these roundtables, BHER member RBC co-hosted a national working forum this fall for invited leaders to co-develop practical reforms and shape what comes next.
