Guest: David Miller, former mayor of Toronto and managing director of the C40 Centre for City Climate Policy and Economy

David Miller draws on his experience as Toronto mayor (and on lessons learned in the schoolyard for how to confront bullies) to offer his perspective on the way ahead, the power of a mayoral mandate and where to find a sense of optimism for the city.
