Engage and Shape Your Future with Darrell Brown
A politics and business junky, Darrell has pretty much done it all from writing legislation, successfully seeking policy reforms from municipal, provincial and federal governments, advising regulators, litigating in front of administrative tribunals and the courts up to and including the Supreme Court of Canada, leading for-profit, not-for-profit and charitable organizations, establishing new regulators, assessing governance structures, recommending governance improvements and seeing through their implementation, overseeing corporate governance and regulatory compliance.

A Bit About the Person
Darrell was born in Halifax but has been tied to Toronto for forty years. He has five children and his family is a testament to the diversity that is Canada. His wife was born in Ukraine. His three sons share Guyanese and Canadian descent. One of his daughters was born in Macedonia and he was married in Kyiv, Ukraine. The above photo is somewhat dated since the family is not altogether at the same time very often. He has lived, worked and thrived in many countries. He understands the benefits of diversity and values the multiculturalism that is proudly on display in the GTA.
