POW Canada Townhall Whistler

Climate change is impacting our way of life, low snowpack years, wildfires, floods, and landslides are becoming more frequent. It threatens our jobs, our businesses, and our local economy. As winters warm, snowfall becomes unpredictable, and fires burn, what does that mean for mountain towns like Whistler?

Join us for a POWerful conversation on how we can build a more resilient community with:

• Local business owners & municipal leaders

• Athletes & outdoor enthusiasts

• Community members—like you

Longstanding pillars of Whistler’s outdoor culture, like Momentum Ski Camps, are now closing due to shrinking snowpack, a reminder that the impacts of climate change are already here. Let’s come together to talk about what this means for the future of our economy and the outdoor spaces we love.

Stick around afterward for a POW Community Canada Après, connect with like-minded locals and continue the conversation over drinks!
