Join Canada’s leading community of business continuity, disaster recovery, cyber resilience and risk management professionals at the DRI Canada Symposium 2026, taking place Thursday, November 12, 2026, in Gatineau, Quebec. Building on the momentum of our 2025 theme, “One Country, One Network,” this year’s Symposium brings together senior practitioners, government leaders, academics and emerging professionals from across the country for a full day of insight, collaboration and practical learning.

The 2026 program will explore the risks and realities reshaping resilience in Canada, including cyber threats, AI-enabled disruption, supply chain instability, climate-driven emergencies, geopolitical uncertainty and evolving regulatory expectations. Through expert-led presentations, interactive discussions and real-world case studies, attendees will gain actionable strategies and lessons learned from organizations navigating today’s increasingly complex operating environment.

Proudly hosted in Canada’s National Capital Region, the Symposium is a fully bilingual event — un événement bilingue — with sessions, materials and networking opportunities offered in both English and French. Whether you are an experienced certified professional, a public-sector emergency management leader, a private-sector resilience professional, or new to the field, the Symposium offers valuable content, meaningful connections and perspectives from across Canada.

More than just a conference, the DRI Canada Symposium is one of the country’s premier networking events for resilience professionals. Extended networking breaks, lunch, and an evening reception create opportunities to reconnect with colleagues, exchange ideas and build new professional relationships.

DRI-certified attendees may earn Continuing Education Activity Points (CEAPs) toward credential maintenance, and certificates of attendance are available upon request.

Early-bird rates, member pricing and group discounts are available. Register today and join the conversations shaping the future of resilience in Canada.
