The analysis of our health care system needs to be based on information, objective analysis, and evidence – and a lot of that great work is being done at the C.D. Howe Institute.

It has become one of our country’s most recognized think tanks and has added much to the perspective of Canadians on a diverse range of subjects – from fiscal and monetary policy to economic growth and innovation.

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 has a great reputation.

In a period of growing social, economic, and geopolitical instability, rigorous, timely, and evidence-based research to support Canada’s policymakers has never mattered more. The Institute has done that work for decades, and I am proud to contribute to it.

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

Independent research is critical to debate, and the C.D. Howe Institute is a true Canadian jewel.

I have valued everything about my time so far with the C.D. Howe Institute.  There are a broad range of policy issues that will see insurance becoming an even more significant topic in public debate over the next several years.  I am thrilled to be asked to continue to engage with the Institute’s outstanding team to help think these topics through.

I support the Institute for its proven track record of advancing policy proposals that tangibly help Canada in its quest for talent, innovation and investment.

“In an era of “fake news” and “alternative facts”, the independent, evidence based public policy work of the C.D. Howe Institute is more important than ever. Their work helps all of us better understand the world around us and provides a platform for informed engagement, discussion and decision making”

Why should we support the Institute? Because it is only through support from civil society that an independent voice such as the C.D. Howe can survive.

The C.D. Howe Institute is a world-class Canadian think tank that produces leading-edge, objective and analytically rigorous public policy work. I hope that all levels of government in Canada will take full advantage of the Institute’s outstanding public policy work.

The C.D. Howe Institute is one of Canada’s treasures, playing a vital role injecting facts and analysis into policy debates.

We support the Institute because good policy decisions don’t happen by chance, they arise from informed debate aided by quality independent research.

I use C.D. Howe reports and briefs in many of the columns I write and in every policy course I teach at McGill. They are the model of intelligent, informed, evidence-based analysis. Canadian policy debate would be bleak without their like.

The C.D. Howe Institute is by far the best and most productive of Canada’s non-university think tanks.
