What We Do

Canada 2020 is Canada’s leading, independent, progressive think-tank. Founded in 2006, Canada 2020 has spent more than a decade hosting events, producing original research and starting conversations about Canada’s future. Our goal is to build a community of progressive ideas and people that will move and shape governments.

Canada 2020’s Head Office is located downtown Ottawa, steps away from Parliament Hill. Our collaborative office and convening space is available for rent.
