Returning Spring 2026
The Ottawa People’s Summit will be back in spring 2026. Stay tuned to the 613 on Substack for more information. Thanks to your support and helping us find New Ways to Win.
2025 Summits
Ottawa had two People’s Summits in 2025 — in the spring and fall.
More than just a conference, the People’s Summit continues to be a launchpad for a people-powered movement — one that’s organizing, building power, and winning real change for our city.
We’ve explored how other cities are winning, and the lessons for Ottawa.
We’ve celebrated local Community Victories, sharing stories of progress from Ottawa and connected through our vibrant Exhibitor Hall.
What Others Are saying
The Ottawa Citizen had a glowing review of the inaugural People’s Summit, identifying the event for what it was: “we’ll look back on this time as when people power was born.”
“When a community decides to get organized, it can leverage all those bits and pieces of time and resources and reach big goals.“
Now is when the people of Ottawa take back City Hall. That’s why we’re building people power.
