The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives has been, and continues to be, profoundly important to Canadian democracy…. It is virtually unique in its breadth of ideas and its depth of research.

This is the transcript of a presentation to the Standing Committee on International Trade on the Canada-U.S. Procurement Agreement made by CCPA trade expert Scott Sinclair on March 16, 2010.
On February 25, 2010, Naomi Klein gave a lecture on the issue of climate debt, organized by the CCPA.
This was the first in a series of lectures in honour of David Lewis (1909-1981), a leading labour lawyer, life-long social democrat, a founder of the NDP and its national leader from 1970 to 1975. His grandson Avi Lewis introduced the lecture series.
The lecture series will focus on issues that were important to David Lewis: social democracy, organized labour, and income inequality.
