At our last April Meetup ([https://www.meetup.com/volition/events/313622208](https://www.meetup.com/volition/events/313622208)), we broke down what we called: **👉 “The best deal we’ve seen in Toronto in 20 years”** \~6% cap \~$11,000/month rent \~$2,500/month cashflow We didn’t finish. We stopped the presentation short. And, in fact… This is where the deal started to fall apart. **👉 We didn’t even get to the part where the real decisions had to be made.** Instead of people immediately leaving after the presentation was done: 👉 they stayed 👉 they kept asking questions 👉 and the #1 question was: **“When’s Part 2?”** **So here it is – Dead Reckoning: Part 2** (In true Mission Impossible style…) **No clean path forward. Just decisions under pressure.** If Part 1 was identifying the problem… **Part 2 is where we had to execute.** Where we left off: * Power of Sale (seller = lender, not owner) * No protections (Schedule C overrides) * Open permits with real risk * Legally a duplex… not a 5plex * Potential $250K HST exposure **Most investors would walk away here. But we didn’t.** In Part 2, we go into what happened next: * Financing starts to break down * The deal has to be restructured under pressure * Assignment is used to keep control * Appraisal isn’t ready… but a decision still has to be made * The buyer is forced to consider going firm without full certainty At multiple points, this could have: * collapsed entirely * failed financing at the last minute * or left the buyer exposed to problems they couldn’t unwind **This wasn’t a clean process.** It was a series of decisions made under pressure – where getting it wrong could have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. **And most of what mattered… wasn’t obvious.** **This is the part most people never see.** We aren’t talking about the numbers. We’re talking about: 👉 The decisions 👉 The pressure 👉 The execution when things aren’t clean We had to figure out how to move forward – without exposing the buyer to unnecessary risk. **Why this matters:** Most people don’t lose money on obvious bad deals. They lose money when: **“Something feels off… and they don’t know how to navigate it”** The biggest risks aren’t always the ones that look scary – they’re the ones people assume are fine. If you’re actively investing – or planning to – this is the part you need to understand. **You’ll leave with a very different lens on how to evaluate – and execute – deals like this.** Part 1 was about: 👉 Identifying risk Part 2 is about: 👉 What to do when everything starts breaking **Bottom line:** Anyone can analyze a deal. **Very few know how to execute when it gets messy.** We didn’t get through this last time – and we’re picking up exactly where the real execution began. **👉 Come see how this actually played out – and how deals like this get done in the real world.** **Note:** If you came to Part 1 – this is the continuation. If you didn’t – you can still attend… we will be doing a short recap of Part 1. **👉 Just know: this is where the real execution begins.** *** **Schedule:** **Monday, May 25, 2026, 6:00-9:00 pm** * 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm: Check-in and Networking (remember that your network is your net worth!) * 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm: Presentations from the Volition team **Location:** Suite#803, 105 Gordon Baker Road, North York, ON, M2H 3P8.

**Moving from Conversation to Implementation** Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping workplaces, products, services, and decision-making systems across sectors. As organizations accelerate AI adoption, many teams are being asked to make high-impact decisions without clear governance structures, shared implementation standards, or practical guidance for assessing risk, accountability, accessibility, and long-term impact. Across workforce, technical, and community contexts, organizations are grappling with how to ensure AI is implemented in ways that are inclusive, responsible, and grounded in real-world realities. HR professionals, AI practitioners, nonprofit leaders, governance stakeholders, and community advocates each hold critical perspectives on how AI systems can either reinforce existing inequities or help build more equitable futures. This in-person QT Inclusive AI Roundtable brings together professionals across sectors for a facilitated cross-sector working session focused on one core question: **What do organizations actually need in order to implement inclusive AI responsibly in practice?** This session is designed as a collaborative implementation lab where leaders and professionals can explore the real-world challenges of implementing AI responsibly, share practical insights across sectors, and help shape the tools, frameworks, and approaches organizations need to move from theory into action. Through guided dialogue, peer exchange, implementation exercises, and collaborative activities, participants will explore: * where AI is already influencing organizational decisions and systems * the governance, operational, and accountability tensions organizations are navigating * how different sectors experience and define AI risks differently * where misalignments and gaps currently exist * what practical tools, frameworks, and supports are needed to move from theory into implementation Grounded in queer-informed approaches to systems, safety, accessibility, and community-centred accountability, this session centers lived experience as a critical source of implementation insight. Participants will examine how AI systems can unintentionally reproduce invisibility, exclusion, surveillance, or harm when deployed without meaningful community grounding or governance structures. This session is part of QueerTech’s broader initiative to move from conversation into practical implementation. Insights gathered through this roundtable will directly contribute to the development of community-informed toolkits, frameworks, case studies, and practical resources designed to support organizations implementing inclusive AI across sectors. The session will include both implementation perspective-based discussions and cross-sector exchange, creating space for participants to deepen within their own organizational realities while learning from different approaches, constraints, and experiences across the ecosystem. Participants are encouraged to bring: * real organizational scenarios * current implementation challenges * governance questions * operational tensions * decision points they are actively navigating **Following this roundtable, there is a QT Connect for the broader community at the same location in the evening.** **Participants will Leave With:** ✨ A clearer understanding of the governance, operational, and accountability challenges organizations are currently facing in AI implementation ✨ Cross-sector perspectives on how AI risks, tensions, and opportunities are experienced differently across workforce, technical, governance, and community contexts ✨ Greater insight into the practical tools, frameworks, and supports organizations need to move from intention into responsible implementation ✨ New ways of thinking about inclusion, safety, visibility, and accountability through queer-informed and lived-experience perspectives ✨ Practical ideas, questions, and next steps to bring back into their organization, team, or community ✨ Connections with peers across sectors navigating similar implementation realities and decision-making challenges ✨ The opportunity to contribute to the development of future QT Inclusive AI resources, frameworks, and toolkits This roundtable is supported by WAGE (Women and Gender Equality) Canada and by RBC’s approach to helping strengthen the capacity of Canada’s nonprofit sector. **Who Should Attend** This session welcomes professionals working across: * HR, workforce, and organizational leadership * AI, product, design, and technical systems * Nonprofit, public, and community-serving organizations * Governance, policy, accessibility, legal, and strategy roles * Research, advocacy, and ecosystem-building spaces No advanced technical expertise is required. **Event Details** 📅 May 28, 2026 🕑 2:00 PM – 4:30 PM ET 📍 Toronto \| In Person 🗣 Language: English **About QT Inclusive AI** QT Inclusive AI is a national initiative designed to support professionals across Canada in understanding, assessing, and applying inclusive AI practices within real organizational contexts. Through curriculum, assessment tools, facilitated dialogue, and community-informed resource development, participants examine how AI systems are being used in practice and where risks, tensions, and opportunities are emerging. The goal of QT Inclusive AI is to help translate responsible AI principles into practical implementation across technical and non-technical environments.

🏡🌿 **THE BRIDLE PATH (DRAKE’S MANSION) & EDWARDS GARDENS WALK** 🌿🏡 Luxury Streets, Hidden Trails & A Garden Escape Some parts of Toronto feel like a completely different world — and this walk takes you right through them. Join us for a social walk through The Bridle Path, one of the most exclusive and wealthiest neighbourhoods in the city — known for its massive estates, gated homes, and quiet, tree-lined streets. This is where celebrities and icons have lived, including Drake and the late Gordon Lightfoot. It’s the kind of area where the houses don’t just impress — they *shock*. From there, we’ll shift into nature and make our way toward Edwards Gardens, where things slow down with flowers, pathways, and a peaceful break in the middle of the walk. This is not a formal tour. It’s a social walk — a mix of city curiosity, nature, and good conversation. 📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd) \*\*\* **🚶‍♂️ What We’ll Do** We’ll begin in the Bridle Path area, walking through the neighbourhood to take in some of the largest and most impressive homes in Toronto. From there, we’ll head toward Edwards Gardens, where we’ll take about a 30-minute break to relax, explore, and enjoy the flowers. After the break, we’ll continue along parts of the Don River trail, finishing near Eglinton & Don Mills. For those who want, we can grab something casual afterward at Tim Hortons or McDonald's. ☕🍔 You’re welcome to join or head out whenever you like. \*\*\* **🌦️ Weather & Expectations** This walk happens rain or shine. Please come prepared for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. The route is moderate and includes a mix of neighbourhood streets and park trails. Also — this is NOT a guided or historical tour. I’ll share bits of context casually, but the focus is on being social and enjoying the walk. \*\*\* 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 Meetup Location: Par king lot near Bayview Ave (exact spot easy to find on arrival) 🫎 I’ll be wearing my Moose Hat ⏰ Meetup Time: 11:00 AM I will only wait 5 minutes.

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD

Tuesday, June 2nd, 5:00–8:30 PM Eastern Central Ohio Chapter Meeting IN PERSON IN COLUMBUS How I Get Private Lenders and Partners to Fund My Deals If you can’t fund it, you don’t have a deal. And right now, funding is where more investors are getting stuck. Private lenders are more cautious. Partners are asking better questions. And deals that look good on paper still fall apart when the money doesn’t show up. That’s why we’re bringing in a panel of investors who are actually getting their deals funded right now. You’ll hear how they’re finding money, structuring deals, and building relationships that lead to repeat funding. Here’s what you’ll learn: * Where they’re finding private lenders today * How they start conversations that lead to funding * What makes lenders and partners say YES * How they structure deals to be fundable * The biggest mistakes investors make when raising money * How to build repeat funding relationships **Early Session (6:00–7:00 PM Eastern):** **Having Trouble Finding Tenants? How Community Shelter Board Can Help** Nicholas Brenner will walk you through programs designed to help rapidly rehouse tenants, including financial support that can stabilize your rentals. **The Deal Room (7:00–7:30 PM Eastern)** Bring deals, funding needs, buyers, and problems. This is where connections turn into action.

REGISTER HERE: [SIGN UP TODAY](https://link.elitereimm.com/widget/form/mUCJcb9LFDGoPqRg82jP?am_id=debbie4540) Should a real estate investor get a real estate license? Sometimes it’s a massive advantage… and sometimes it can complicate your business if you don’t know what you’re walking into. In this training, we’ll cut through the “agents vs investors” drama and focus on one thing: **what makes you more money and gives you more leverage**. You’ll learn: * **When being licensed helps investors win** (better access, better data, better terms, better deal flow) * How investors use a license to **create extra profit centers** (commissions, referrals, listings, buyer rep, property management pathways) * The truth about **MLS access, pocket listings, and being first to the good deals** * How licensing impacts **wholesaling, double-closing, assignments, and disclosures** * What brokerages don’t tell you: **fees, splits, compliance, and time requirements** * When it’s smarter to **partner with an agent** instead of becoming one * A simple decision framework: **licensed vs partnered vs hybrid model** You’ll walk out knowing whether licensing fits your goals—and if it does, the cleanest path to do it without slowing down your investing.
