Good for Canada. Good for the West.
The Canada West Foundation is the only public policy think tank that focuses on issues that matter to the West. We provide policy solutions in three areas: resources, environment and economy; skills, innovation and productivity; and trade and trade infrastructure. We advance policies that decision makers trust.
“This is about moving to the next level of impact – advancing practical, thoughtful policies on things that matter to Canada while respecting the uniqueness of the WEST.”
— THE HONOURABLE DOUG BLACK, KC
“The Canada West Foundation works every day to educate political leaders, the media and Canadians from coast to coast, about the huge contribution that the West makes to our country. We are all better when we are united as a nation. CWF, through its strong advocacy and education, works tirelessly to remind us all why supporting the West makes all of Canada stronger.”
— FORMER B.C. PREMIER CHRISTY CLARK
“It is difficult getting the Western point of view heard and taken seriously in Ottawa. This is why we need the Canada West Foundation – now more than ever. Respect for the Foundation crosses party lines because it has always offered reasonable, nonpartisan policy solutions that are grounded in evidence-based research.”
— HON. RONA AMBROSE, PC
