This year’s RE/MAX Activate Conference was in Toronto! Attendees were able to gain valuable insights, build meaningful connections, and discover innovative strategies to elevate their business with RE/MAX.

Key Moments

  • 3 vs 3 RE/MAX Basketball Tournament in Support of CMN: Five teams participated in the tournament, raising a remarkable $4,000 for the Children’s Miracle Network. Congratulations to the ‘RE/MAX Canada’ team for raising the most funds and taking home the championship trophy!
  • Canada’s Economic Outlook: CIBC economist Benjamin Tal reveals that the real estate sector is facing its toughest challenge since the 1991 recession due to aggressive interest rate hikes from the Bank of Canada, which have inadvertently increased inflation through higher mortgage payments. He predicts that interest rates will drop by 50-75 basis points this year, reaching about 2.5% by the end of 2025, supporting a market recovery.
  • CMN Miracles in the Making: Over $110,000 was raised for the Children’s Miracle Network during the live auction and several other breakout sessions including prize drawings. Donations raised will benefit the 13 Children’s Hospitals across Canada. The event featured CMN patient ambassadors Ava and Cash. Bruce Johnson and his family were also recognized for reaching the $1 million mark in donations for The Alyssa Rae Johnson Fund, benefiting the SickKids Hospital. Watch the Facebook Live video here.

David Edelman, Founder and Director of Project TENS at MIT and former White House Tech Advisor, discussed artificial intelligence, and its impact on our work and the world. He emphasized that these technologies can “transform our interactions,” and help improve business practices.
  • Arlene Dickinson, Entrepreneur and on CBC’s Dragons’ Den: Shared her inspiring entrepreneurial journey to becoming a visionary leader and influential figure in Canadian business. Despite facing numerous challenges in life, her vision, dedication, and perseverance have been her guiding forces.
