context_page_description: Salon Camden is an interactive socio-cultural salon where residents of Toronto, Ontario, Canada meet. Salon Camden is one of the few salons held in Canada. It was founded by Azmi Haq.
  Salon Camden’s discussions take place at Dr. Richard Florida and Dr. Kevin Stolarick’s ‘think lab’ at the Martin Prosperity Institute which was then located at the MaRS Centre in Toronto. Salon Camden also has a module named Camden File which brings youth and academics together to discuss pressing issues. The first Camden File session featured the topic of "Streets of TO: Who's Space is it Anyway? The session included Christopher Hume, a Toronto Star columnist as well as Matt Blackett, the founder of Spacing magazine. Salon Camden has also launched Salon Camden International, hosting events in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, St. Petersburg, Russia, and Lahore, Pakistan. Plans are currently underway to host future Salon Camden International events in various cities, including Tokyo, Japan.
  Salon Camden has also launched the Centre for Urban Dialogue, an initiative that attempts to better engage youth in the civic process.
