The 2009 Heritage Canada Foundation conference will bring together

This is an essential event for advocates, municipal planners, developers,
public policy makers, elected officials and property owners.  Delegates will
learn how the rehabilitation and re-use of older buildings and existing
neighbourhoods can help save the planet - and how the green movement
and architectural conservation will become more integrated in the process.</span></font>

The conference is designed to foster exchange and collaboration through
expert panels consisting of a session leader and presenters from the
heritage, environmental and green communities - each of them bringing the
perspective of their respective field.  Each 15-20 minute presentation will
use research results, examples and case studies as stepping stones to
broadly applicable principles and/or concrete recommendations for practice.</span></font>
