About the Public Policy Forum

The Public Policy Forum is an independent, non-profit organisation aimed at improving the quality of government in Canada through better dialogue between the public, privacy and voluntary sectors. The Forum’s members, drawn from businesses, federal and provincial governments, the voluntary sector and the labour movement, share a common belief that an efficient and effective public service is a key element in ensuring our quality of life and global competitive position.

Established in 1987, the Public Policy Forum has gained a reputation as a trusted, neutral facilitator, capable of bringing together a wide range of stakeholders in productive dialogue. Its research program provides a neutral base to inform collective decision-making. By promoting more information sharing and greater linkages between governments and other sectors, the Public Policy Forum ensures that Canada’s future directions become more dynamic, co-ordinated and responsive to the challenges and opportunities that lie before us.
