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

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.

I am grateful to the C.D. Howe Institute not only for giving me the opportunity to put myself in the place of monetary policy decision-makers through the Monetary Policy Council but for the invaluable sources of comments and ideas that have informed my research over the years.

For decades, the C.D. Howe Institute has been one of Canada’s leading think tanks, contributing enormously to policy debates and inspiring positive reforms for Canadians. I am keen to contribute in areas that I have focused on over 25 years in public life, including immigration, labour markets and skills, fiscal policy, internal trade, and indigenous economic development.

The C.D. Howe Institute’s work is invaluable to the nation.

The C.D. Howe Institute has always been one of Canada’s most trusted sources for research and policy analysis of the highest caliber. What is perhaps less acknowledged is the leadership the Institute provides to convene experts and decision-makers to debate practical policy options that address Canada’s most pressing challenges. I am honoured to further my association with C.D. Howe Institute through this appointment.

I am delighted to be the CD Howe Institute’s Fellow-in-Residence and Inaugural Scholar in AI and Digital Policy. I look forward to conducting research with colleagues from the Institute, and helping convene national level conversations on public policies that support AI innovation and safety in Canada.

I have always tried to focus my research on areas with direct application to public policy,” said Johnson. “The C.D. Howe Institute has been a great partner in pursuing my interests.

You need outside voices, like the C.D. Howe Institute, that are rigorous and thoughtful, that challenge some of the assumptions that are made within government.

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!

The C.D. Howe Institute’s research is a critical asset to policy makers, and it provides a unique venue for substantive, non-partisan policy development. I hope my gift inspires others to make personal contributions to the Institute’s future.”

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

The C.D. Howe’s Financial Services Research Initiative is a unique set-up, unparalleled in Canada. It brings together policy makers, industry experts, financial institutions and academic researchers for a free exchange of ideas and pressing regulatory concerns.

I am thrilled to continue my close relationship with the Institute and to play a role in both research and engagement with its members.

The C.D. Howe Institute provides an opportunity for government to engage with partners in the private sector, partners in other levels of government, and others in the non-profit world.

It is an honour to become a C.D. Howe Institute fellow and to be part of a leading research organization dedicated to competitiveness, productivity and innovation in Canada.
