On September 24 and 25, 2026, MADD Canada held two prominent events in Oakville, Ontario, which aimed to address the ongoing issue of impaired driving in Canada. The first of the two events was the inaugural Policy Symposium, which sought to unite policy experts to discuss approaches for reducing impaired driving incidents, a problem that continues to result in hundreds of fatalities and thousands of injuries annually. During this symposium, participants highlighted the necessity for effective legislation, law enforcement practices, reliable data collection, and evidence-based policies to mitigate the risks associated with impaired driving.
Following this event, MADD Canada hosted a National Leadership Conference, which gathered volunteers and leaders from various regions. This conference aimed to bolster community support for victims of impaired driving and to strategize on prevention measures. Together, these events represent MADD Canada’s commitment to addressing impaired driving through collaboration and informed policy initiatives, as well as enhancing support for those affected by these tragic incidents. The organization continues its advocacy for comprehensive measures that could result in safer roadways across Canada.
