Leadership

Where do we look for our leadership?

Our Mayor and City Council? Other cities and countries?

Understanding the big picture and being able to implement on the local scale is vital in this day and age. In order for Guelph to continue to thrive, we NEED leadership. In fact, in the municipal election this November, we will demand it. In the meantime, join us in reading these Better Ways e-bulletin articles – and be inspired by what is possible in Guelph with real leadership.
