June Publishers View Point


It has been a busy month and it is hard to believe the summer is fast approaching. No time to slow down, as the next few months are shaping up to be my busiest yet.

I will be attending the Canada Green Building Councils (CAGBC) Shifting into the Mainstream Summit at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre June 11-12 which looks like it is going to be a great event. The relationship with CAGBC started off as a simple conversation last year and grew into media sponsorship the past few months. We have provided extensive coverage of the green initiatives and products and have built a new relationship for this Fall with the 2008 Green Building Festival.

The Green Building Festival is a two day conference and expo highlighting the best and brightest in green building innovation. Take an in-depth look at the real world impacts of green building, with comprehensive case studies, product analysis, visionary keynotes, and 100 exhibitors with ready-to-market green building solutions 2007 cemented the Green Building Festival as the premier annual Green Building event in Canada. We are proud to be official media sponsors of the 4th Annual event.

Next up this summer is our local news coverage expanding to Barrie with the Construction Association and great profile running in our July issue. Earlier in May I had a chance to travel to a members dinner at the Robert Simpson Brewery and meet some interesting people and share some great beer, no only if I can find it at a local retailer here in Niagara.

Make sure you stop by our booth at the MTCC June 11-12 and if you are from the Barrie area make sure to send me news of your events and projects so we can cover them in the new Barrie local construction news section.
