TORONTO, ON – The Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC) is pleased to announce the appointment of Kathy Haley as its new President & Chief Executive Officer, effective November 26, 2024.

The MTCC would like to extend its sincere gratitude to Ron Pellerine for his leadership and dedication as Interim President & CEO over the past year.
