Donner aux responsables des services publics les moyens de gérer les risques, de partager des solutions et de planifier l’avenir.

The Municipal Water Consortium is a national network of executive utility leaders from 26 major Canadian cities, collectively serving over 23 million residents (more than 50 percent of the population).

The Consortium fosters connection and cultivates a vibrant professional network. Members learn through peer-to-peer exchange and curated expertise and resources. Together, they tackle shared challenges and champion innovation — enabling their cities to act with foresight and co-create solutions.

Faire progresser les enjeux prioritaires

Promouvoir la viabilité financière des services publics d'eau 

The Consortium is advancing practical solutions to help Canadian municipalities sustainably finance the operation, maintenance and renewal of water systems. We work closely with municipal leaders and sector experts to surface what’s working on the ground. By uncovering sector-wide best practices, we help cities align long-term financial sustainability with service excellence.

La prévoyance en action: anticiper le changement, accroître la résilience

To help utilities anticipate change and adapt with confidence, the Consortium continuously scans for emerging trends, risks, and opportunities. This forward-looking work supports proactive decision-making by surfacing early signals and helping leaders prepare — ensuring Canada’s water systems remain resilient in a rapidly evolving world.
