CEOs representing more than 200 Canadian organizations, including three of Canada's big banks, have signed up to support the BlackNorth Initiative against systemic racism.

A list of the signatories was released Monday for an online summit of Canadian business leaders, who have pledged to create conditions to support the success of members of the Black community.

The summit opened with comments from Hall in an interview-style presentation that was broadcast online from a theatre in Toronto. "Or I'm driving to work on a conference call with the chairman of the board of one of my clients and I get pulled over because my car is too nice." Hall's co-chairs for the summit were Cisco Canada's Rola Dagher, CIBC's Victor Dodig and Fairfax Financial's Prem Watsa, who are all chief executives of their organizations.
