At an economic turning point for the country and as the Canadian government looks to stimulate the economy with significant investments in local and regional public infrastructure projects, it is imperative that government leaders leverage tools like Community Benefit Agreements (CBAs) and Social Procurement in an effort to empower diverse communities during this economic recovery.
