A culture of ambition
Live keynote address from TC Energy President and CEO François Poirier at the Canadian Club of Ottawa on March 31, 2026

Join our President and CEO, François Poirier, live for his Canadian Club of Ottawa keynote address outlining how Canada can have the fastest-growing GDP in the G7 through political will, a renewed ambition and streamlined regulatory framework, designed to deliver outcomes.
In the room where one of Canada’s most ambitious nation‑building projects began, Poirier will draw on lessons from Canada’s most confident economic eras and TC Energy’s 75‑year legacy of connecting the country. He will share a vision for renewed ambition—one where government, business and Indigenous leaders align early, decide clearly and execute decisively to unlock Canada’s full economic potential.
A fireside chat, moderated by Harry Culham, President and CEO of CIBC, will follow. Don’t miss this opportunity to join two prominent Canadian business leaders as they discuss what’s needed for a competitive and ambitious Canada—one where our systems are designed to deliver and compete to win.
