The Canada Green Building Council (CaGBC) announced winners of the 2020 Leadership and Green Building Excellence Awards last week, recognizing individuals and organizations that demonstrate “outstanding industry leadership and have made significant contributions to CaGBC’s mission to advance green building in Canada.”

“It is a privilege to congratulate the outstanding achievements of this year’s Leadership and Green Building Excellence Award winners,” said Thomas Mueller, president and CEO of CaGBC.

“While 2020 has brought much uncertainty, these award winners demonstrate that our industry remains focused on the important work before us. Addressing the need for sustained climate action, resilient buildings and communities, and human health and wellbeing will be critical in the decade ahead.”

Winners will be recognized throughout Building Lasting Change 2020, taking place online on five consecutive Tuesdays from Sept. 22 to Oct. 20. Leadership award winners will also be profiled weekly beginning in early September, while Green Building Excellence winning projects will be explored in a series of Lunch and Learn sessions starting late October.
