In partnership with the Ontario Principals Council, the event provided solution-based programming for organizations to Recruit, Retain and Promote from marginalized employee groups.
This event featured Chris as a keynote speaker where he helped to mentor Racialized & Indigenous employees, educate HR professionals and executives, helping them to recruit, retain, and promote marginalized staff. He helped to inspire change and help people to ally together in order to create inclusive, culture-rich work environments with diverse talent.

Chris was featured as the special guest where he spoke and witnessed his book 'Why Are All The Taxi Drivers...?' as a play after it was turned into a production by YES Theatre in Sudbury.
