“Through discussions at roundtables I’ve hosted across the province, I’ve had the opportunity to hear youth and community leaders share their ideas for building a strong rural Ontario,” said Ontario Minister of Agriculture Jeff Leal, who will be a speaker during the event. “This summit will act as a catalyst for engaging youth in their communities and help municipalities, businesses and Ontarians of all ages come together to build the future of rural Ontario.”

Anyone interested in attending the summit needs to register.

Anyone unable to make it but still wants to experience all the goings-on can watch it through a livestream.
