Events

If you have an item to repair, and would like to have someone skilled help you repair it, then sign up for a FREE ticket.

Typical repairs include, small household appliances, yard tools, housewares, umbrellas, gadgets, backpacks, bags, purses, and clothing. No gasoline powered equipment, welding, large TVs, microwaves, pressure canners, refigeration equipment, clothing alterations, or pant hems. Be sure to read the ticket descriptions before signing up.

We also have a DIY repair station where you can try your hand at sewing, glueing and stretching shoes, knife sharpening, and more. No need to sign up for the DIY station.

If you don't have anything in need of repair... don't despair, we are happy to have you come and see repair in action.

NOTE: Not all items can be repaired - we will do our best. If your item cannot be repaired you will at least know that you tried. Should you have something that can't be fixed, you can donate it for parts and/or recycling.

Each year, the Fellowship accepts a small cohort of Canadian students (~15) with exceptional character to participate in a self-organized internship in Asia, enabled by a $10,000 scholarship. The Cansbridge experience empowers Fellows with a global and entrepreneurial mindset, and a community that lifts each other to new heights. This is the community of a lifetime.

Moving at the speed of AI

AI systems are starting to get really useful, but they use far too much energy to be served to everyone on the planet. We are going to need to make computers a lot more efficient and produce way more energy than today. Trevor McCourt (BSc, MME, '20), CTO and co-founder of leading chipmaker Extropic, will explore how radically efficient computing can transform the trajectory of AI’s energy demands. The program also includes startup lightning talks, a feature presentation from near-zero energy chip maker Vaire, and a networking reception.
