The Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD) has a big job:
it is the voice of the land development, home building and professional renova-
tion industry in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). The GTA is the fastest-growing
region in Canada and one of the fastest-growing in North America. This comes
as no surprise to residents of such suburbs as Milton, Markham, Ajax or Missis-
sauga, where populations continue to increase and residents continue to vie for
living in complete communities. As communities spring up in the far reaches of
the GTA, BILD works to improve communication between the building, devel-
opment and professional renovation industry and the government, promote the
welfare of the industry and protect the interests of consumers.
