Is the forecast bright or gloomy - How long will recovery take and what steps should be taken to curtail ever-present risks? Looking ahead into a post-pandemic Canada, with some of its key industries how these will manage risks and challenges caused by the pandemic and an uncertain economic environment. High profile speakers and experts focused on Hospitality, Energy, Financial Services, Fiscal Policy and Real Estate will share their perspectives on how these industries will develop in the medium and long-term. We will discuss how the pandemic has impacted these industries and what were the factors behind their vulnerability or resilience.

Discussion Topics:

• How have industry responses to the pandemic varied, and what can they learn from each other?
• What is the potential for contagion among sectors? Which shape and do these differ from industry to industry, from province to province?
• Are regulators and government agencies lending a helping hand or deepening the trouble sectors are already in?
