From Mayor Vrbanovic's Message

This new vision articulates that Kitchener is a community built on a foundation of caring and connection
“The lessons of our past and the promise of tomorrow
Remind us that people who love their city can always change it, and our world, for the better.


​“The decisions we make today and the initiatives we launch are the building blocks of our city's future.
We're in this together with our citizens, inter-governmental & other partners, community builders & change-makers Together, we’re building a Kitchener for today
and the next generation
And our vision and strategic plan will guide us along the way.
