11) A Bold Vision for Canada! Charlottetown's 2014 Declaration 

We are thrilled to announce that the shared vision statement created by the Bold Visionaries on September 26, 2014 at Province House is now available online.

It is our hope that 150 years from now, not only will some of the visions presented at the conference and in the anthology have come to fruition, but that the Bold Vision conference will be recognized as another moment in history when diverse leaders met in Prince Edward Island, engaged in relationship-building, and discussed the future in committed, collaborative ways to create new pathways in the territory we presently call Canada.
