Amplifying the Voice of Ontario’s Engineers
At OSPE, we believe that engineers have valuable technical knowledge that should be communicated with policy makers so they can make fully informed decisions for the benefit of Ontario and Canada. The work of OSPE’s advocacy teams has made strides in changing policy surrounding energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and more. By contributing our recommendations we raise the reputation of the profession and create positive change.
