Praise for the Institute

“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”

The C.D. Howe Institute provides a forum for informed debate and discussion of public policy issues of national importance and their publications are well researched and informative. I consider myself privileged to be included in their efforts.

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 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 trusted source of policy intelligence and can help re-energize the debate on passenger rail service across Canada

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.
