Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives
The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives is an independent, non-partisan research institute concerned with issues of social and economic justice. The CCPA is one of Canada’s leading progressive voices in public policy debates.
The CCPA works with top-notch researchers on the key issues facing Canada. Whether it’s the growing gap between the rich and the rest of us, the push to privatize our health care system, or gas companies gouging us at the pump, we set the record straight.
We work on solutions that show Canadians’ best values are not only possible, they’re practical. We start with some basic principles—human dignity and freedom, fairness, equality, environmental sustainability, and the public good—and show that we can afford to build a more just and sustainable Canada.
Our national office is in Ottawa, and there are provincial offices in Nova Scotia, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and British Columbia.
