Curious about your local government?

We want to educate Pickering residents on how their municipal government works, and encourage public involvement in the planning and processes behind the facilities, services, events and programs that touch their everyday lives.

Course Objectives

• Increase residents' knowledge of City issues and how local government works
• Build informed citizens who may collaborate with City staff and meaningfully contribute to developing new, or reviewing and redesigning existing, City services and programs
• Build trust between Pickering residents and local government

The City is committed to building a culture of community engagement, to provide residents with a greater sense of agency, purpose, connectedness and responsibility. Pickering 101 - Your City. Right Now. is a recommendation identified in the City's Community Engagement Strategy, a report undertaken in 2011 to guide and enhance our engagement efforts.
