Since its founding in 1958, the C.D. Howe Institute has been active in economic and social policy issues across Canada.

The C.D. Howe Institute’s research and publications provide thoughtful, reasoned and balanced analysis of a wide range of public policy issues in Canada today.

C.D. Howe means exposure to first-class critical analysis; participation in the development of thoughtful public policy; and enjoying the company of dynamic people engaged in the broader community.

The C.D. Howe Institute is a great Canadian think tank.

Bringing together top policy-minded economists from across Canada, the C.D. Howe Institute leads the pack in analysing and debating important issues, and offers policymakers a solid foundation of logic and evidence for possible solutions.

Strong research, deep analysis and lively debate play a critical role in creating workable public policy and regulatory frameworks.  The C.D. Howe Institute has long provided one of Canada’s most dynamic and effective forums where this takes place. It’s inspiring to be part of it.

Now, perhaps more than ever, places such as the C.D. Howe Institute are vital to deliver policymakers and the general public the non-partisan, peer-reviewed and evidence-based analysis needed to navigate complex public policy topics. I am thrilled to continue my affiliation with the Institute in furthering that mission.

Bravo and thank you to the C.D. Howe Institute and to its members for a half-century of work to improve the quality of life of all Canadians!

Joining the C.D. Howe Institute is the single most effective way to intelligently broaden our national debate.

The C.D. Howe Institute plays a very important role in stimulating national debate and reflection on key topics that will shape our future. For me, small and medium-sized enterprise entrepreneurship and success are important areas of focus, and the Institute is very effective in developing and sharing policy ideas which will lead to SME growth as well as enhance Canada’s prosperity and competitiveness.

The C.D. Howe Institute is a legendary name. I had to read C.D. Howe publications when I was at school, and they are still required reading.

Supporting economic growth with effective policy has never been so important. The C.D. Howe Institute’s work in this area is second to none.
