“This is a critical moment for global collaboration, and I look forward to advancing programs and initiatives that protect and advance Canadian interests. Protecting our trade interests, providing new research, and convening to navigate the complexities of North American relations will be key priorities.” – Carlo Dade

International Policy

Our International Policy area of focus will address trade and policy agendas in areas of strategic focus for Alberta and Canada – primarily, North America, and the Indo-Pacific region including China. Canada’s national security and defence, including Arctic sovereignty, are other areas of focus.  

We collaborate with leaders in business, government and academia to develop a practical program of international policy studies focused on security and defence as well as the economics of international policy, particularly issues related to trade.
