Toronto Open Smart Cities Forum
About
The Toronto Open Smart Cities Forum was created by the Centre for Free Expression to assist the public in responding to proposed and existing networked forms of urbanism like Sidewalk Toronto.
Any member of the public is welcome to share the resources the CFE creates for the Forum. This includes documents and analysis, public panel discussions, and colloquia as the Sidewalk Toronto process continues.
The purpose of these resources is to help inform and educate residents affected by networked urbanist forms of smart cities like Sidewalk Toronto and others who are interested in open smart city solutions. To find more information about the Centre’s work on smart cities, click here.
