Publisher's Synopsis

Once celebrated as the city that works, Toronto is a city on the brink.

Strained by urban sprawl, crumbling infrastructure, and outdated governance, Toronto is coming apart at the seams. Its promise - of livability, opportunity, and innovation - is being undermined by years of inaction and political gridlock.

But all is not lost.

In this book, ten leading City Builders set out a bold, practical roadmap to turn things around. Together, they show how we can:

  • make local government work
  • find the money to fix what's broken
  • solve the housing crisis
  • unclog our streets and transit
  • confront the climate emergency
  • navigate the rise of big tech
  • foster social solidarity
  • and design spaces that bring people together.

This is a wake-up call - Toronto's future is still ours to shape.
