OTTAWA, February 22, 2022

The Canadian Construction Association (CCA) is pleased to announce that former NHL player turned community leader and mental health advocate Jordin Tootoo will be headlining its 2022 Annual Conference in Vancouver, British Columbia. His keynote on leadership and creating a culture of exceptional teamwork will kick off a timely program designed for the construction industry.

This marquee event, taking place March 8 – 11, 2022 at the JW Parq Marriott Vancouver Resort, will bring industry members together to share best practices, network, stay current on industry trends and celebrate members’ accomplishments through our National Awards program. Registration is now open.

Other sessions to note include a debate on the future direction of Canada’s trade economy and needed infrastructure, an insider’s perspective on the state of the nation and what this political landscape means for construction in Canada, a CEO roundtable discussion on how to scale-up your business, as well as panels on data trusts and green building, presentations on Indigenous infrastructure, and tips on building a talent pipeline.   

For those who are unable to make it in person this year, CCA is offering a live stream experience where registered delegates can view a selection of sessions from their home or office. The mobile conference app and online event platform will also allow all delegates, registered for the in-person or live stream event, to engage and network.
