Canada is a better place because of the highly regarded analytical policy work of the C.D. Howe Institute.

It’s an honor and a privilege to be associated with the C.D. Howe Institute. I have learned a great deal from ongoing discussions with my colleagues there about the central public policy challenges confronting Canada.

For over 50 years, the C.D. Howe Institute has been a beacon for sound economic and social policies in Canada.  Its remarkable contribution and intellectual leadership continue unabated.

As the premier economics research institute in Canada, the Institute has contributed enormously to our understanding of the Canadian economy and the multiple social, economic and environmental challenges facing the country. I look forward to making further contributions to the C.D. Howe Institute’s research mission.

The C.D. Howe Institute makes a valuable contribution to raising the level of knowledge and sophistication in policy deliberations.

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

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

I am thrilled to be joining the C.D. Howe Institute given its international reputation as a leading independent, nonprofit research organization that is advancing economic, financial and public policy in Canada.

“The importance of nonpartisan evidence-based research in critical areas of Canadian public policy cannot be overstated. Since its founding in 1958, the C.D. Howe Institute has fulfilled this role admirably. I am honored to be a part of this great Canadian endeavor.”

I am pleased to be contributing to the C.D. Howe Institute’s work in providing non-partisan, evidence-based policy advice to improve Canada’s economic outcomes.

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.

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.

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 a great Canadian think tank.

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

To be read and, most importantly, challenged by researchers who are among the most knowledgeable about economic policy in general and the Canadian economy in particular is the wonderful gift the Institute is providing its fellows. I can’t do without it.
