About the Conference

For close to two decades, the Canadian Stewardship Conference has been Canada’s “go-to” forum for dialogue on Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), attracting delegates, guests and speakers from across the country, across North America, and around the world.
Held every two years, the Conference is a dynamic, interactive, non-partisan event designed to promote dialogue amongst business leaders, practitioners, governments and other stakeholders affected by EPR programs and regulations.
