Metro Sustainability Breakfast – Jun 19

We’ve come a long way since the 1911 typhoid outbreaks and beach closures blamed on sewage pollution. Today, thanks to visionary decisions made by community leaders, engineers and city planners during the last century, we have a comprehensive and cost-effective regional sewerage system throughout the Metro Vancouver region.

Join us for an historical journey of the past 100 years, and an exploration of impressive technological innovations and improvements that will unfold in the next 100 years.
