With help from the community, Northcrest Developments and Canada Lands Company are working together on a plan for the future of our lands in Downsview. Based on feedback received over the last year, they have new information to share and seek feedback on.
This meeting is dedicated to a discussion between Indigenous communities, Northcrest, and Canada Lands. We are keen to share the results of these discussions with all communities following the meeting. A summary of the feedback received will be available at id8downsview.ca (see the Round Two Feedback Summary for feedback shared at the first Indigenous Community Sharing Meeting).
If you don’t self-identify as a member of First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities and are interested in participating in the id8 Downsview process, we invite you to attend the two Public Townhalls on July 8 & July 13, explore the website, provide feedback through our online survey or get in touch by phone or email to share your thoughts.
