Over the last 30 years, the CCPA has provided alternative research and analysis that have been indispensable in exposing the corporate agenda. I don’t know what I’d have done without them.

 The CCPA’s 30th anniversary on November 18 welcomed a full house. We marked this special occasion with a gala dinner at the Chateau Laurier and an all-day conference at the University of Ottawa entitled Advancing Democracy and Social Justice in Canada—The Next 30 Years.
It was a who’s who of progressive thinkers, activists, and politicians:
It was a feast of ideas and entertainment, conversation and community, with many surprises. Most of all it was an opportunity to remind ourselves that working together offers the best hope for a better world—of peace, justice, democracy and respect for the planet.
Thank you to all who attended and who watched online.
