10:30 to 11 a.m.
Oakville Town Hall
1225 Trafalgar Road, Oakville
According to the 2021 Census, Oakville continues to grow its diversity as 41.2 per cent of the population are immigrants and we welcomed an additional 1,505 new residents to our existing black community. Our diversity and experiences make our Town a leading economic engine and one of the world’s most diverse and livable communities.
As the 25th largest city in Canada, Oakville is a global leader in technology, finance, culture, and innovation. It consistently places at the top of international rankings due to investments championed by its government, residents, and businesses.
