About the Belonging Tour

The Belonging Tour is a national convening series designed to bring together leaders, employers, educators, community builders, and allies to advance inclusive economic growth across Canada. Launched in 2025, the Tour was created in response to national immigration shifts and the growing need to strengthen community connection both locally and nationally. What began as inaugural stops in Halifax, Calgary, and Toronto quickly became powerful spaces for dialogue, collaboration, and action.

In 2026, we continue this momentum deepening our impact and expanding our reach.

Resiliency in Action: Economic Strength & Immigration in Canada

This year’s theme explores how organizations, institutions, and communities can actively build economic strength through inclusive practices that support newcomers and international students. Belonging is not just a value — it is an economic imperative.

Together, we will examine:

  • Workforce integration and retention

  • Community-driven economic resilience

  • Inclusive leadership in times of change

  • Local solutions with national impact
